I'd like to have actual physical buttons for the Start/Stop/Pause functions for running g-code programs. I've got my hardware talking through HAL pretty well for jogging and spindle/feed overrides, but the program commands are proving more difficult to figure out. I'm using the halui module as the in-between.
I've tried simply toggling *halui.program.run* and *halui.program.stop* and that doesn't do anything except throw an error onscreen in Axis. I then tried toggling the *halui.mode.auto *pin before toggling the run pin. When I did this, the program would appear to start and then immediately stop. If I hit the button again, nothing would happen, and I'd have to quit Axis and restart it for anything to happen. Does anyone know of any way to make physical program control buttons work with Axis? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.
