In Ports and Pins / Output Signals I’ve got Output #1 enabled on port 1, pin 16 and have tried both Active Low and High.

I’ve run the following code from the VB Script Editor and a macro with the same results. The spindle LED lights and Output1 lights on the Diagnostic page. I can never get IsActive(OUTPUT1) to change state. It is always returns inactive or false. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Tony

ActivateSignal(OUTPUT1)
Test = IsActive(OUTPUT1)
If IsActive(OUTPUT1) Then
 Message "OUTPUT #1 input is active"
Else
 Message "OUTPUT #1 input is inactive"
End If
Print Test

Test = IsActive(OUTPUT1)

RTFM

"This function returns a Boolean True if the current state of the specified INPUT signal is its active state."

Don't worry, the reason I know the answer to your query is because I've been caught the same way.

Thanks djc,
so your saying Isactive() only checks the the state of INPUT signals and not output or leds?

Oops! I see it know. I have to use IsOutputActive() for output signals instead of IsActive(). IsActive is for input signals.

Thanks for getting me back on track.
