2 More Questions

I have my electrician coming over tomorrow to wire the bot into the breaker box, yeah!!!

Well I guess both questions are the same, router and dust control, are there relays in the control box that I can hook these to so they start automatically when I start the program?

they are both 110VAC.

I know for sure the router is yes and I would imagine you can hook up the dust collecter also. Someone with more knowledge than I can tell you how.

Not sure if it comes as standard these days as ShopBot are always upgrading their products but I had to buy one of these - http://www.shopbotdocs.com/Relay-Board.html - to allow me to turn the dust extractor on/off from the software.

I set up a heavy duty outlet attached to the far side of the bot for the Dust Collector plug. It starts with a heavy duty switch on the front of the bot.

The router switch is not difficult to reach. Not sure why the need to use fancy relays for this.

I'll second Curtis you can put in a relay but I think it is easier to just have the manual switch.
