using extruder signal to activate a switch?
February 13, 2014 02:48AM
Hi,

I am designing a system to control the flow (or not to flow) of a clay extruder.
So far everything works fine but now I need to activate it in sync with the general extruder signal going to the (gen6) board.
Especially the filament reversing signal is the one I am hoping to use as it gives an automatic delay in head movement.

My setup does not need the motor for the extruder. I could theoretically use that port to activate the switch to stop my clay flow.

How do I do that?

Thanks for any advice!

Yao.
