You can turn on and off pyvcp leds from the M1xx files, look at the M1xx examples in the manual.

Can you post the code your having problems with and try and explain the problem in a bit more detail. I can't understand what your question is...

Hi
I think I understand what you are asking, here is an example
Create a LED called say led1 in your pyvcp script ( normally custompanel.xml) with something like
When your vacuum pump is active, from your M120 script call
halcmd setp pyvcp.led1 true (it will show red)
When the vacuum pump turns off again call
halcmd setp pyvcp.led1 false (it will show green)
led1 does not have to be connected to anything at all for this to work, but you may have to set its default state in your custom_postgui.hal file on startup.
regards

<vbox>
<hbox>
<label><text>" red led "</text><font>("Helvetica",8)</font></label>
<led>
<halpin>"led1"</halpin>
<size>15</size>

PS
A more normal way of activating LEDs is by linking pyvcp LEDs to signals, such as coolant activation.
For instance:
Using the same .xml to create a LED , pyvcp.led1
In the main .hal file, mist coolant relay is linked to iocontrol
net coolant-mist <= iocontrol.0.coolant-mist => parport.0.pin-17-out (pin 17 is coolant relay)
In the custom_postgui.hal file, the signal coolant-mist is linked to pyvcp.led1
net coolant-mist => pyvcp.led1
Then every time coolant-mist is active (TRUE) the LED turns red.
Hopefully between the 2 examples your query is answered
