I have a display of the values in milliseconds and combined motor speed control cobbled up out of pyvcp, to run both halves, the on time and off time for a teeny little peristaltic pump that controls the mister. A cobble job for sure, but it does exactly what I ask it to do. Uses a oneshot you can ccontrol both on & off times of, enabling the axis mister checkbox turns the air on and starts the oneshot, and the oneshot on time bumps the pump for a few milliseconds about 3x or 4x a second. Takes about 4 hours to use up an 8 oz coke bottle of about 5% kool-mist & distilled water. The pyvcp module that feeds the display is analog, and could be used for your servo trim signal. The module itself has up and down arrows you click on to adjust. 5ms on, 250ms off is enough to keep the tool and alu its carving wet, cool and cutting clean while the spindle motor is doing 17k rpms on a rebuilt 6040 cnc mill. > And can anyone think of a solution.
