Hi, first time on your channel, you have done a great job. I bought my fist cnc a month ago, Onefinity elite foreman and I decided to install ATC spindle. Never done this before but I think I have finished connecting all pneumatic valves, water cooling and flow sensor today and everything looks working manually for now :-) (changing tools by pressing the button manually I mean), I need to make places for toolholders and to set tool positions in masso. I have connected manual tool release the way so it doesn't work while spindle is spinning as a safety precaution. There are 2 things I couldn't find how to do. The first thing is how to configure tool holder sensors in masso, have no clue where to find that? The second thing is how to configure the pneumatic valve that helps to clamp the tool if the spring fails (tool retracting valve). -To solve the 1-st issue with toolholder sensors I was thinking to use "open door" input for that, but I am still thinking on it. -Tool retracting valve (that clamps the toolholder in place), I was thinking of two possible scenarios, 1-st method to mount the time relay to normally closed contact , so when the output is High and tool is released the time relay is off, but when output goes low and the spindle starts to clamp the tool, then the normally closed contact turns on the time relay and it triggers the return air valve for 5 seconds (5 sec. is showed in the spindle manual) 2-nd method is just to connect return air valve to NC contact directly, so whenever output for tool release goes low, the tool retracting valve will be turned on, but it will have to be under pressure almost all the time, though I have checked, the spindle is still rotating well in that circumstances so I think it will also work. I am not willing to ask about the way you have done it, not trying to get your secrets, just trying to hear your prrofessional opinion on my humble thoughts, if possible off course. I am not professional in this subject and I am sorry if I sounds stupid, as I said I have never done this before, learning from youtube 🙂, from guys like you,Thank you for that. English is also not my first language, so I apologize for my mistakes and for very long text.

All spindles are different, and so on, and the sensor can also vary. I have a few videos on installing my old ATC system, which I am no longer selling. But the ATC is without any sensors. But in the videos, I do kinda touch on the Masso layout and settings for an ATC. I would look over the docs for Masso on the ATC and also take a look at the forums. For the tool release, I would run that through the VFD itself to lock out the spindle from being able to open why it's running so it would look something like the selenoid In line with the VFD, and when the VFD is sending any type of power to the spindle, it will lock the selenoid out. Not allowing you to open the jaws by accident. Masso also has Open and Closed jaw sensor inputs. You need to make sure you have the correct sensors. Depending on the type of sensor, you might have to run some extra stuff to get them to play with Masso nicely.

At 0.48 timestamp you say biggest number, the numbers are negative.... you want the smallest number (Mr. Literal here). Also, if you can get a helper to do this with it sure helps a LOT. Seeing or feeling a small deflection 4 feet away is tough. A jog wheel also makes it easier ... on click on the wheel was about a 0.01" movement at x100.
