For welcome lights you need to two things:-

Set VA_WELCOMELIGHT to active in CAPPL.
Set WELCOMELIGHT to active in LMA.

The welcome light function seams dependent on the LCM (light control module, LMA in NCS), I have found the function only exists in the second generation LCM which was introduced from around sept-oct 2006.
It may also appear in a first generation LCM with the latest software.
Thanks - I will give it a try.
