Those are connected to hardware by one of the HAL files in the config. If you ran the demo then you will now have all the files in your ~/linuxcnc/configs folder, but the HAL file for the changer looks like this:
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master...toolchange_index.hal
If you are using a B-axis then you will have more G-code and less HAL to control things.

I see
Thank you very much !
I will try it
Thank you again !

Thank Eneias Eringer very much!
Your configure make me understand port config (parport.0 is Parallel port, pin-xx is pinout of Parallel port)

Thank again !

I'm curious as how to use it without making it an axis?

I'm in the middle of adding a ATC to my machine, I use mesa5i25 + 7i76, the carousel using stepper with step+dir signals with a home switch.

thanks a lot

The "carousel" HAL component can align a carousel to a tool number (using various types of feedback) without the carousel being a G-code controlled axis.
