I want a green light to show the robot is running.
if the stop button is pressed or the door is opened the light goes of.

    You can map and make a signal that will be a system output for program is executing.  Have it turn on a relay which will power your light.  You can read up on such things in the System parameter manual.

    Hi !

    For example by mapping it to controller CycleOn in config files:

    #
    EIO_SIGNAL:
          -Name "do_GreenBeacon" -SignalType "DO" -Device "ABB_Scalable_IO"\
          -DeviceMap "0"


    #
    SYSSIG_OUT:
          -Name "do_GreenBeacon" -Status "CycleOn"


    Fritz.
