    Let me expand...

    I will have two Mach profiles - std Bridgeport & engraving

    In profile 1 I have say output 7 defined as active low and no other connection
    In profile 2 I have say output 8 defined as active low and no other connection

    On the CSMIO each one of these outputs controls a respective VFD these outputs, being active low will come on as soon as Mach has started up and will stay on regardless of Mach reset condition.

    So to do engraving I would fit the aux spindle and tell Mach to use profile 2 and so on.

    It doesn't actually decide what to do, it just chooses the correct VFD for the profile I click on.
