    Output Display

    Hello, in settings you can set under utilities which counters should be printed in the output. E.g. limit and input. A consecutive number is attached.
    But as it is now, it's pretty much useless. It would be helpful if it would also be printed which limit pin or input pin it is exactly. And whether the EStop was triggered by the Errot pin, or in some other way.

    This is extremely useful to find bad cables, connections... Then you are hunting down reasons for unexpected behavior this is more than enough. Once you know that limit switch is the reason, it is easy to track down which one.
    This feature works in real-time and even smallest glitch is detected. Therefore not much info is available.

    Indeed, having a info which input triggered the estop or the limit would be immensely helpful. It would just eliminate the seeking which one is the bad one and tell you right away.

    I agree. But it simply is not possible to do this at low level.
