Thanks for the reply. Well, some basic IO is a good start, and triggers could also come in useful. Yeah, I'll probably use some other electronics to sample the other more complex sensors. I was just wondering if I could do it all with a Duet 2.

Thanks

Hi,
I am considering using a Duet 2 board to control a machine which is not a 3D printer, but is driven by a bunch of stepper motors. G-Code commands will be sent in real time from a PC to the Duet 2 to move the steppers. It will not be running a pre-defined program.

The machine has several sensors (switches), which the PC will need to be able to read.

My question: Is the Duet 2 capable of reading the state of sensors and feeding those back to the PC somehow? Is there a G-code command to read back the state of sensors connected to it?

Many thanks
Hugo
