    Hi,


    leo's cards are for inputs and cannot control an LED.
    you need phidgets LED or an opencockpits output card or similar.
    and the software to drive it.
    you can also just hook the LED to the switch and it will just turn on with the switch and not really show you that the park brake for example is really set. not a good option.
