setting up 120v router was created by cmtunnel
I have my router motor set up. It will turn on and off from the linuxcnc axis screen. When I start a program the router turns off and the machine continues to run the program with the router off. I think the pid settings for the spindle are causing it to turn off. I haven't been able to get the config. set up right. I'm also running the xhb remote control which looks like it is using some of the commands.
I just need the router to turn on and off with the m3 and m5 commands. Any suggestions?

When you issue a m3 command you most also set a spindle speed.
So first enter S5000 or perhaps even S1 if you are not using linuxcnc to control the router speed.
So...
S 5000
M 3

Or you have the relay wired incorrectly, but if it turns on and off correctly in axis, then what Rick said is correct.
If you do not want to add the Sxxxx , you can modify the config (with stepconfig if you used it to create that config) and choose only SPINDLE ON output, not spindle PWM or spindle CV or spindle CCV.
