    OK, version 4.01 still acts the same... couple questions if you don't mind?


    1. The light on the board - When the drives are enabled is this light supposed to stay on?
    2. The 5V to enable the drives - which inputs are these to go into? i originally had the in 16 and GND and it works but motors would still stay engaged if i disabled the motors with the software.


    Sorry - the IO screen that button does stay checked. I got mixed up, its actually the amp enable that will not stay checked.

    I have also soldered the bottom of the board as asked

    Looking at the flyer for the cpu card it looks like you are using the watchdog output to enable the drives which appears to be correct for this cpu card. I think that the green led should be on when the drives are on because the watchdog signal will be ok. I think that the watchdog output signal is staying on even though you are turning the drives off but I don't know if this is correct for this cpu. I have had a quick look at the servo amp manual but im not sure if it the correct one for your motor. It says that the amp enable should be 12 or 24vdc switched from its own internal supply. Are you using the watchdog signal to switch a relay for the servo amp enable signal?
