Hi,
I'm finalizing my control panel design and was wondering what things I can get from the controller and how to implement. I'm looking for status things that would mimic the LED's on the board and maybe some other stuff I haven't thought of yet that would be helpful to run the machine.
ARM
ERR
CPU
+24V
+5V
Etc.
Thanks for any help on this.

ARM LED can be mapped in Mach4 to any digital output using the ENABLE signal.
For Error and CPU LED there is configuration setting in the vsi Device Manager software. Please consult the manual http://www.vitalsystem.com/portal/motion/VSI_Device_Manager_Manual.pdf
You can also configure key-lock switch input using this software.
thanks

Thanks for the reply Rufi. I'll take a look and see if I can implement a couple of these options.
