Additionally to Andy's questions: >From the question I understand that You have written Your own, custom HAL module and now want to install it in EMC. For that You need: 1) emc2-dev package installed - use Synaptic package manager; 2) emc2 source code for Your version; see this link: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/emcinfo.pl?Installing_EMC2#Getting_the_source_with_git Once You have these, You should put Your my-module.comp (the name of module file is Your free choice) file in ~/emc2-dev/src/hal/components folder and run these commands in terminal: cd emc2-dev/src/hal/components sudo comp --install my-module.comp I have read that the second command should not need sudo, but I always get "no permission" error, so I use sudo If You are asking about writing the module file, then I would suggest looking at existing modules and adjusting them.
