Want to add alarm input from motor drives

Maybe a long shot, but you're using a Unicode "minus sign" (character code U2212) instead of a normal ascii hyphen when you write "amp−fault−in" in your posts. If you're using that in your .hal file then that won't work. Change to normal hyphen: amp-fault-in.

The problem was that you used the pin name as the signal name in your net commands. Signal names are arbitrary and what you wrote in your hal file created signals with the same names as your amp fault pin names.
Change the lines in your hal file to something like this.

good eye, i missed that!

yea i ended up net-ing the alarm fault pin to the hm2 pin by wiring them to the same variable and that fixed it! working now thanks for your inout folks!
