Hi, Luther

Only if you have the servo error/trip fed back to Mach, Config, Ports&Pins, Inputs, "E-stop", 5 volts Max or gnd., Tied into your E-stop in some way.

Probably other way's also.

Hope this Helps, Chip

If your drives have a fault signal output then you can put this in to Mach  as  Input 1, then on the General Config page at the lower left you choose the Program Safety Lockout option. If your drives fault then Mach will see input 1 and will stop.
