Thanks, that was it. Now the next question is about field outputs in the d version. I have been using charge buckets to detect the 500 hz square waves, gated from the charge pump to enable, in sequence determined by timers in my hal file, to enable a couple 400 volt 30 amp SSR,s that turn on the spindle supply first thru a 50 ohm 200 watt R, then 4 seconds later, turns on a second such SSR that bypasses the 50 ohm. This to control the inrush that if hard switched, trips a 30 amp breaker. If I clip out the charge buckets, and simply ground the - terminal of the SSR with the timed outputs while feeding the + terminal 12 volts. is there ever a situation during the systems power up where those 2 outputs might be pulled down, enabling things out of sequence or the timers control? If its safe, I can simplify the hal file by at least 15 LOC. Talked to you on and Catherine the phone just now. So that potential problem is solved also.
