    Wait for input M59

    Hi everyone,

    Can someone possibly advise if its possible to use M59 with the external InOut board?
    I need my program to wait for an input on an input pin before continuing.
    When i use M59 P1-8 it works fine. But Im wanting to use an input pin from an external InOut board for this purpose.
    Is this possible?

    Thanks in advance

    BTW this is with Mk3/9 board
