Lights
There is an option to control external lights using inbuilt digital output (if the device is equipped with it). The lights are controlled by the state of the digital /io/in_light input. Advanced settings of lights can be done by parameter /misc/lightopts
tip
If you are using the UART display, you can use its light input by setting the /io/in_light parameter to value 3,14
/misc/lightopts is bitwise parameter. The following options are available:
| Bit | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Turn on the light on controller startup |
| 1 | Use second contactor output as brake lights |
| 2 | Use second contactor with PWM as brake light. Only for PWM capable outputs.

Contactor output mapping
| Controller | Description |
|---|---|
| SL controller | Contactor 2 is used for lights Contactor 3 is used for brake lights |
| SC, SX controller | Contactor 1 is used as lights If brake lights is enabled, it is used as brake light. |
| AM controller | Contactor 1 is used as lights Contactor 2 used as brake light. (withou PWM controll) |
| AX, TX controller | Contactor 1 is used as lights Contactor 2 used as brake light. |
tip
If you want to configure contactor voltage, check the contactor settings. This only works for controllers with PWM-capable outputs.
