Is this using a Pico Systems PWM controller, or a Mesa board? (I've lost track.) Following info assumes my PWM controller. When you hit F2 to go from "machine on" to "machine off", then the PWM outputs are disabled, and so the PWM output goes to a low (zero Volts) state. That should turn off the transistors of the PWM servo amp, assuming the PWM output goes to the servo amp's PWM+ input, and the PWM- input is grounded. When you hit F1 to go to the E-STOP state, then the PWM is forced to zero, all SSR drive signals are forced to the Hi-Z state. The SSRs have the + terminal connected to +3.3 V, and the - terminal is grounded to turn the SSR on. > >> But, maybe there is a momentary bobble on the commands to >> the SSRs when you click the button. >> I'm guessing that means the E-stop button here. >> > Thats the second button in axis?

You are sending this out on one of the digital outputs to an SSR?
