I don't know why the man page for toggle2nist does not give a complete description for understanding toggle2nist. I ran some tests with it to find out exactly how it behaves.
When is-on changes state it always drives both outputs to false. then only one toggle is allowed on in pin per attached truth table.

Looks like i'm not allowed to attach my truth table so I'll try to explain it. If in is false when is-on goes false, off goes true.If in is true when is-on goes true, on goes true.

Here I'll try to build a table but I see the html screws up the spacing.

I hope these help.

Thank you for your comments, Giorgio however I am not skilled in the programming language in your response.
I think a better description for my understanding would be:
A reset condition occurs whenever "is-on" changes state. When in the reset condition both outputs are false.
If in the reset condition "is-on" is false, a change of state of "in" changes "on" to true.
If in the reset condition "is-on" is true, a change of state of "in" changes "off" to true.
Further changes in output will not occur until unit is reset by change of state of "is-on"

sorry if my comment I was upset a little ... but ... if then else or and not I think is boolean basic math not only c code ... more English is not my language .... so use the code it seems to me better.

Anyhow ... now you are solved the question??

I used: forum.linuxcnc.org/47-hal-examples/13201...-hold-resume-buttons

I found that after pausing, 1st depress of the run/step button, the unit finishes the line of Gcode it is on, pauses, depressing it again would advance 1 step, pressing it again would not step, but make is-on change state then the further presses did nothing. pressing resume/pause at this point does resume properly.

Ok is more clear for me .... because I have the same problem ... (very rarely but I have) ... so the next week I try to understand the problem better.

I'll have to take a look at it, the code was provided by someone else and I only use Run and Pause/Resume no single step.

The file you posted is identical to what I have and for Run/Pause works flawlessly. However the Run/Step function sometimes works perfectly, other times gets hokey and you have to hit the Run/Pause alternately with Run/Step to get it to step.
