Hi DSBlue,

Unfortunately we are not familiar with the EPOS hardware and library so I don't have the solution. However, there are 2 similar threads that I hope can help you.

How to detect a photomicrosensor in LabView directly?

limit switch program for EPOS

Looks like it might not be possible to display the sensor data value, but you should be able to use your sensor as a limit switch for the motion control.

I would recommend approaching Maxon to see if they can help.
