Spindle Stop?

[manofgresley]

Hi Rick, many thanks for quick reply, but i don't fully follow you.

My current condition is this, if Mill loses power, Steppers keep going, BAD situation, if cabinet loses power Mills X,Y & Z axis stop, but the Spindle keeps rotating, were do i fit the relay? if you have time a sketch would help.

Regards
