Title: digitize light
Post by: PCH on May 11, 2016, 02:55:06 PM

Got everything hooked for my zero tool plate correctly
went into diagnostics and the digitize light is already on and
I have not made the connection :-\  disconnected wires
from breakout board and still it is on.  Restarted Mach and light is
still on.  Light should be off normally correct? ???

Yes off normally

Is the probe input configured in ports&pins?

It is.  I have found that if I uncheck active low the light goes out. 
The light comes on when I complete the circuit.  Now it works.  Not sure why
as the video I watched said to put the green check mark for active
low in the ports & pins for the probe.

 Hi PCH it depends on what the N.O. state is.
