Clearpath HLFB connection to relay

I see on the schematic that the red wires go to ground and the green go to 1,2, and 3. My question is, by what means do you connect them to the ribbon cable input? I'm sure there is a simple answer, but my MO is scatterbrain.

You will need to remove the connector at the opposite end of the ribbon cable, separate out the appropriate wires and then connect them
to the wires from the Clearpath cables and power supply.

Alternatively, you can leave the connectors on your cables and plug them into a C86ACCP Clearpath Connector Board from cnc4pc.

I have this board and it makes the connection between the servos and Acorn really easy. It has a built in relay that can be setup to monitor the fault status of your motors.

I can't seem to get this to work. It comes on with a green led, then goes red, repeat at 5 second intervals

There are some users here that used the cnc4pc C86ACCP Acorn to Clearpath board. I have no experience with it. You can also reach out to CNC4PC for guidance in using their products.

Have you put C86ACCP in the search box upper right corner of this page and reviewed the messages?

This schematic will not apply since you are using the CNC4PC C86ACCP board.

I assume you have downloaded the manual from the Product Download page?

It may also make a difference as to which hardware revision you have. Reach out to CNC4PC

Well. I can get it to work properly WITHOUT the c8 board, but not with it....
