My mach is still reporting switch conditions etc even when E-stop is hit. E-stop kills the drives and stuff in my machine, but the IO board and computer are still on. Hitting the E-stop kills the enable output from the IO board that goes to the enable relay which kills the drives and anything that moves like the coolant, cabinet fans, way oiler. Mach is still active, just in E-stop mode, it just gets a signal on pin 10 that the E-stop was hit.
So, my thought was that it would be much easier to just look at the diagnostics screen and see the limits tripped and know instantly where the issue is. Sure I can figure it out, but it would be nice if Mach just said the limit was hit.
