You can set the shift lights to almost any configuration you want. You also can set one of the red alarm lights to register when you reach what you want your maximum rpm. If you are talking about a pedal sensor you can set the sensitivity on it. It would help if you explained more about what you were trying to do.
Have you contacted your vendor as most of them are geeks and pretty knowledgable about their products.

Its simple enough to pick up the stock 951 TPS signal and use it for a throttle position channel to your AiM logger. Then you can set one of the MXL alarm leds to be On at 100% throttle.

I think the idea is to be at 100% throttle asap coming out of a corner and the LED shining red would be a reminder that you are or aren't 100% throttle.

You could set up (add) a micro switch at 100% either on the throttle pedal or engine. Make it in the "Closed" position when it is 100% and put a light on top of the dash or somewhere other than the alarm area. If you make the alarm the indicator, you might miss or ignore a real alarm, like zero oil pressure.
I recommend using all the alarms for alarm stuff. For instance, I make the left side water temp and make it progressive, like 230 top light, 240 middle light and 250 on the bottom light. I use two points for oil pressure on the other side in a progressive manner.

Thanks Jerry.
The alarm might have saved me at Mid Ohio when water temp was rising and I didn't see it until the alram lit.

That's why I started using progressive alarm. The first number being a warning. That way you don't need to pull off the track when you see one and sit and ponder if it is safe to drive to the pits or continue driving.
