The terminology is confused An input pin receives a signal, an output pin sends one. I mean i can basically connect a switch to the arduino and when i flick the switch it does something in Linuxcnc? Yes, the output pin in the component, can be netted to an input pin in Machinekit and any change to the state of the relevant arduino pin is reflected in Machinekit but first i need to get an Arduino :) That would greatly assist !!!

The pins are output pins, because that is what the component does. The arduino publishes the values held in its GPIO and the component reflects those in its array of output bit pins, which can then be connected to whatever in HAL so that the change in arduino pins causes an action in HAL. I don't know what config-pin is, if you want input pins so as to write TO the arduino, you need to completely rewrite both the arduino script and the component. -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
