EMCOturn 120

The EMCOturn 120 turret reports its position on four signal lines. MASSO rotates it clockwise to the requested tool, then counter-clockwise for 1000 ms to lock it. There are no settings to configure.

Input signal sequence

From EMCO documentation, for MASSO G3 and MASSO G3 Touch. Your turret's signals must match this sequence.

MASSO G2 NOTE
On MASSO G2, tool numbers start at 0. The patterns are the same, shifted by one: Tool 0 uses the Tool 1 pattern, Tool 1 the Tool 2 pattern, and so on up to Tool 7.

3. How it works

1
After all axes home, MASSO reads the turret signals. A valid code updates the current tool number; an invalid one shows an error saying the turret signals are incorrect.
2
On a tool change, Output 1 goes High and the turret rotates clockwise until the requested tool is in position.
3
Output 1 goes Low and Output 2 goes High for 1000 ms, rotating counter-clockwise to lock the tool.
