That indicates the select8 might be the correct module to detect
motion.motion-type=5.
So:
loadrt select8 count=1
addf select8.0 servo-thread
later in .hal file:
net probe-ctl <= motion.motion-type => select8.0.sel # disable out5 if not
probeing move
net probe-sense <= hm2_5i25.0.gpio.003.in_not => select8.0.enable # edit "not"
for correct action
net probe-hit <= select8.0.out5 => motion.probe-input # signal source is
p3-15, gpio.003
But that gets an error exit:
twopass: Error in file ./GO704fast.hal:
Pin 'select8.0.enable' does not exist
??? read man 9 select8, several times, can't see error. Lost mind? man page
error???
comment that line out, its runs. halmeter says its not a pin, but a parameter?
'scuse me but what good is a parameter, which the manpage says it is:
PARAMETERS
select8.N.enable
bit rw (default: TRUE) Set enable to FALSE to cause all outputs
to be set FALSE
Note the rw...
Crazy, it was a Wurlitzer. Can it be made into a pin? Many times more usefull.
How many previous users would that break?
me goes wandering off & back to bed.
I'll have to add an and2 I guess. Send select8.0.out5 >and2.N,in0,
probe-hit to and2.N.in1, and2.N.out => motion.probe-in
