so this? only available with servo controller combinations that specifically have that ability?
the gecko can be set to "fault" if position is off the intended position by various amounts but i think that is the only option. it gets a little confusing because the same line is used to provide this signal as the one that needs to be set at startup so i guess some circuitry is needed to allow monitoring of the fault output.?

Leadshine hybrid servo steppers and matching controllers use an encoder to feed back stepper position to the controller. If the stepper position is different to the demand position by a given number of steps it flags an error that can be used with Mach3. The number of steps for an error is a user choice if the default does not suit your needs.
