And I'm surprised a bit, it has + and - "ALM" labels, but they are 
connected when not in fault, and become high impedance when in fault.  
And, according to hal-meter, an unconnected gpio is true, so it looks as 
if I'll need to wire the - to logic zero/aka ground, and hook the + ALM 
to ZFault.  gpio.063 IOW. I also want to make it blink the motor power 
tally led green/red as an attention getter.  And un-home stuff too.
