Spindle Relay

A spindle relay is probably one of the first add-ons you will want to purchase for your new X-Carve. The relay will allow you to control turning on the spindle directly in Easel as well as have Easel automatically turn the spindle off once the carve is complete.

While there are many makes and models of relays, this one is inexpensive, works great, and seems to be popular on the X-Carve owners group community.

It is available on Amazon here:

To wire you're new relay up to the X-Controller:

From your x-controller send two wires to the relay from "spindle (0-10v)" and "gnd". hook those to the green terminal block on the side of the relay. Plug your router into the "NO" (normally open) plug.
