Custom LED outputs

[JoelP]

hi, rookie programmer here

In the IFI operator interface manual, it says that port 1 and port 3 have robot feedback LED pins so you can display feedback on a custom control box. I would like to do that on a custom box along with some switches, however, it also says that these feedback LED pins just copy the LEDs on the Operator Interface. This seems a little pointless to show the same information in 2 places. I would like LEDs on the control box to display a different set of informations, sooo
in short, is there a way to map out the pins on the ports to control different feedback LEDs that you could add to the code? eg. Relay3_red, Relay3_green?

btw, i'm not sure if this is against the rules or anything :yikes:

No, you're limited to the outputs that are provided, which do mirror the LEDs on the OI. It is useful if you want to arrange them differently or use different colors, etc.

If you need more feedback than what is provided by those LEDs, you can look into using a laptop or handheld device to display data from the dashboard port on the OI. If you're interested in that then search around here for the word 'dashboard' and you should find lots and lots of good information.
