Ok, that helped me. Thank you.

Hello, I'm programming several GeoBrick-LV controllers. While I succeeded in doing the basic setup and moving motors and creating simple PLCs, I still don't know if I got all the M-Variable definitions right. My first idea was to use the definitions from the software reference manual, p. 610 (TURBO PMAC2 SUGGESTED M-VARIABLE DEFINITIONS). But the Geo Brick LV's manual gives different definitions for the GPIO related variables (p. 36). Now I could just replace the definitions of GPIO-related M-Variables, but how can I be sure, that there are no further differences? When I tried to download the suggested definitions via PEWIN32 (Configure->M-Variables->Download Suggested M-variables) it seems to load definitions as given in the software reference manual, which are different from the GeoBrick LV manual suggestions, for example: M0->Y$78400,0 M1->Y$78400,1 .... from the SRM vs. M1->Y$78800,0,1 M2->Y$78800,2,1 .... from the GeoBrick LV manual. Can you provide a full list of suggested M-Variables for the GeoBrick LV? Best regards, Christoph

Hello Richard. That option is perfectly fine for me - I just did not want to miss a potentially easier way. Thanks a lot, Christoph

Hi everyone! How can I readout the Geo Brick LVs STO status (safe torque off)? I'm thinking about using the safe-torque-off feature of the Geo Brick LV controllers. The manual is pretty clear on the wiring of the STO pins. However I did not find out how I can readout the STO state. The SRM manual does not seem to know this feature (tried full text search and skipped through the M variables definitions). Is there a register/memory address where I can find the STO status or is it required to wire the STO-out pin on a GPIO input pin? Thanks
