FIGURE 53 HICON STATUS WINDOW
The outputs can be toggled by clicking on the output LEDs. If an output is defined inside Mach3 under Ports and
Pins, then clicking on the output LED will have no effect. This window can be left open while running Mach3.
The P stands for the port number. So output Y0 is port 11 pin 0 located at P11 column 0.
Note: The HiCON Status window is a great place to check for encoder feedback.
