Hi Guys, Just a quick update. I did as paul_c suggested and removed the queue type from the *.nml file. This seems to have fixed my issue, and I now seem to have error reporting coming back into my micro. I can see where Alex is coming from and understand the possible problems of doing this. I will try the changes to shcom.cc and let you know how that goes - I am a complete Linux noob so I am a little worried about doing a recompile, but I will give it a try and see how I go. Thanks again for your help.

I am using the EMCRSH, Telnet interface to EMC.
My pendant was going to be quite a simple affair, but as things go, it has grown larger that first anticipated. I now have up to 84 inputs, being pushbuttons, rotary switches and encoders, and LED indicators for all of these inputs. I also have a 8" digital photo frame as a monitor. These are all controlled by a microprocessor, which is also handling the Ethernet connection to my mini-itx EMC computer. The problem I am having is when I get an error from EMC, I can't get the error message back to my pendant. I have tried the Get Operator_display, Get Operator_text and Get error commands, but none of these are returning an error to me. I am testing this by issuing a simple G01 command from MDI mode, this should invoke an error in regard to having no federate. I get an error displayed on my EMC computer, but all my status reporting to my micro are returning OK's. Is there some other command I should be using???
