NoFaultOut

I am having a spot of trouble getting my Nofaultout output to turn on.
The Drive 1&2 OK inputs are green as is the VFD "ready" input.
Input 8 is monitoring the EStop switch and that is green as well.
There is no fault displayed on the Centroid control panel and it resets successfully.
I am wondering what factors Nofaultout is looking for that may not be met?
I have the nofaultout driving my Estop contactor as recommended.
See report attached.

I have slowly put this Chevalier 1840 lathe together over the last year and I'm hoping to have it running before the end of the year.
I just bought an AcornSix to upgrade it with in order to have enough I/O to drive the 8 station turret.
I am using SureServo2 axis drives from Automation Direct. I found some parameter settings for them in the Forum that seem to be working.
I don't see the SureServo2 listed in the Wizard. If I re-flaxh the firmware on the Acorn will the SureServo be supported?
Thanks!

Re: The addition of the SureServo2 drives to the Wizard. It dawned on me that those definitions live in CNC12 not on the Acorn.... Sorry.

Do you perhaps have some of your outputs forced off, via the Alt-i screen?

There should be NO underlined outputs on the Alt-i screen. An underline means that the output is being forced, either on or off.

THANKS! The forced outputs were the problem. Things are working now.
