Brian,
I think a PLC is a solution for doing what you want to do.

Or is Dan selling them? Nice job and way above my pay grade when it comes to electronics. My only question is the way I see it this only works on one machine and a specific function? I would like a unit that I could wire the shop into that say I turn on the saw, it opens port A and B (Suction on the above table shroud and the saw itself). Then if I run the shaper it¡¯s a different motor and different blast gates.?There are also two operations and two sets of blast gates depending upon if I¡¯m jointing or planing¡.Any way of having multiple gates and multiple functions? Even if it means I have hard wired multiple torroid sensors and blast gates??I had to build a remote heavy duty relay earlier this year for my dust collector, the X10 stuff I was using, the 30 amp relay went kaput and they don¡¯t make them any more, at least that would work with all my old X10 remotes and such. So I picked up a 220V magnetic relay with a 110V coil and now have a relay that is remote controlled that will work up to 40 amps, or more if I had gotten a larger relay.Brian Lambblamb11@...
