Here is your code and I have tested it in the macro pump... so test this and see if it work..

Sub Main()

ES=GETLED(0)

If ES=True Then
  ACTIVATESIGNAL(OUTPUT1)
Else
  DEACTIVATESIGNAL(OUTPUT1)
End If

Call SetUserLED(1201,IsOn(INPUT1))
Call SetUserLED(1202,IsOn(INPUT2))
Call SetUserLED(1203,IsOn(INPUT3))
Call SetUserLED(1204,IsOn(OEMTRIG1))
Call SetUserLED(1205,IsOn(OEMTRIG2))
Call SetUserLED(1206,IsOn(OEMTRIG3))
Call SetUserLED(1207,IsOn(OEMTRIG4))
Call SetUserLED(1208,IsOn(OEMTRIG5))
Call SetUserLED(1209,IsOn(OEMTRIG6))
Call SetUserLED(1210,IsOn(OEMTRIG7))
Call SetUserLED(1211,IsOn(OEMTRIG8))
Call SetUserLED(1212,IsOn(OEMTRIG9))
Call SetUserLED(1213,IsOn(OEMTRIG10))
Call SetUserLED(1214,IsOn(OEMTRIG11))
Call SetUserLED(1215,IsOn(OEMTRIG12))
Call SetUserLED(1216,IsOn(EMERGENCY))

End Sub

Function IsOn(sig)
 
If(ISACTIVE(sig))Then
   IsOn = 1
Else
   IsOn = 0
End If
End Function
 
Main

thanks

for a test put this line in the macro pump

Call SetDRO(0,0)

then try to jog the X axis ... it should keep writing the axis to zero

also if you would like to set the led you need to have a Call

Call SetUserLED(1000,1)


Hope that helps

You can get NEW drives for only 114 a drive and you will be able to get new drives if you ever have a problem... I think the best thing you can do is take out the old drives and have something you can work with   in the end it will be the best 350.00 that you have spent on your project!

Just what I have found from trying to do stuff like that in the past
