I'm not sure how I assume it's through wireless signals but I want computer A to give off a continuous
Bundled circuit output to the lights. but when computer B says "rs.setBundledOutput("back", 0)" computer A is still saying to give off the signal. make computer B tell computer A to shut-down or end the programme? sorry if you don't understand

I'm not sure if the "redstone" event triggers with changes in the bundled input, but if it does that's what you'll want.

Also, what version of computercraft are you using? If it includes modems and rednet, that might be easier.

I have got a wireless modem on here it's computercraft 1.33 and it's readstone.setBundledOutput("back", 0) which is how I turn off everything with computer A. but I don't know how to use Modems or rednet

can you give us a screen shot of your computer setup?

Well, with wired modems you can wrap the other computer as a peripheral, and shut it off: Computer API.

Edit:Fixed link.

Could you send a link to a video or something explaining modems and controlling two computers then because I don't know how to use them? I've sent pictures of my set up

I don't have a video, but I can give you step-by-step instructions

1. Place a wired modem on each computer
2. Place cable connecting the two (it should connect to the modem)
3. Right click on the modem of the computer you wish to turn off/on
4. In chat, it'll say something like "computer_0"
5. Use that value to wrap the computer ( c = peripheral.wrap( "computer_0" ) )
6. Turn off that computer whenever you want.

local c = peripheral.wrap( "computer_0" )
c.shutdown()

Unfortunately, wired modems aren't an option until CC 1.51. I'm not even sure if computers can be treated as peripherals under CC 1.33, but if they can, then they'll need to be right next to each other.
