DoOEMButton(119) toggles softlimits on and off.

You'll want to check the status of OEMLED(815) to see if they are on or off before calling the button.

Ok, that sounds awesome. Thank you!

I'm not versed in the code, personally, but if it's not too much trouble, is there an easy way to create an "IF" statement to check this? (I'm reading this over, and am not fully understanding how this is to be set.) I get that there should be a line that works like "IF OEMLED(815) is ON THEN DoOEMButton(119) 'If the Soft Limits button is lit, turn it off", but I can't exactly understand how. (I know my pseudo-code is a poor example.)

I appreciate the help!

You're actually spot on...

If OEMLED(815) then 'if led is on....
  DoOemButton(119)  'turn it off.
End if
