Using "parameter" in HAL program was created by HalaszAttila
Hello,
just a short question. I write a HAL program right now, and I cant use component`s parameter in HAL file.
Specifically problem is with this line:
net toolHomed carousel.0.homed => not.0.in
ERROR: Pin 'carousel.0.homed' does not exist.
Carousel: linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man9/carousel.9.html
The homed is parameter output bit. With 'Pin' -s i have no problems.
How can i use 'parameter' as input in other components?
Best regards,
Attila.

You cannot connect parameters to other pins
Not sure why carousel.N.homed is a parameter though
parameters are normally just used for setup or debug status
I wonder if "carousel.0.ready" would do as a substitute

"ready" is intended to be used for external connections. "homed" just reports an internal state.
If you need "homed" as a pin, you can easily change it, and recompile the comp with halcompile. (takes about 10 seconds)

Thanks for quick answer,
I make own Homed pin, with a flipflop, the first Ready signal sets the flipflop, and its output act as a Homed, and never resets the flipflop.
