Help Needed: Error Feedback on Gecko G320

I need help setting up the error feedback from the Gecko G320 to
TurboCNC. I would like to pause the program whenever the gecko
faults out. The Geckos have an Error/Reset pin that is +5VDC when
functioning properly and 0V when faulted.

I tried connecting this pin to the parallel port and configuring it
in TurboCNC using the "Drive_Enable_X_(Output)" where X=1-3 for the
X,Y, and Z axes, respectively. I tried both State = Active High and
Active Low, but niether worked.

Most likely I am just not setting things up correctly, so I figured I
would ask if it's possible to hook this up as I have described?
