Machine I am working with now have real buttons on the old control system and are certain it is good this possibility is available in Linuxcnc. With inputs for digital and if needed analog signals it should be no problem get signal into Linuxcnc and also the other direction if needed. Looking into the development manual for 2.9.0 the figure on page 4 is an overview over the arhictecture. Manual for motion state "motion -- accepts NML motion command" and it is possible to connect pins using .hal file but motion commands are hardwire to NML. Not sure to which "component/block" buttons in GUI is connected but guess the most obvious would be to make them these pins available in .hal file so they could be connected just as any other pins. It is already possible to add custom panels or similar with gtk hal widgets which show up as gladevcp.pinName in my configuration file.
