Success message it works great
You are the greatest guys thank you!
There was still some grumbling in one place but that could be fixed quickly.
Here again for the sake of completeness.
The following must be entered in the hal:
loadrt downdraft name=ddraft
addf ddraft servo-thread
net position axis.x.pos-cmd. => ddraft.position
net ddraft-trigger ddraft.trigger
setp ddraft cutover 800
setp ddraft cutoff 1200

great work, glad it works for you.
Custom components are so simple yet so few know they can be written

Do you know of a code snippet anywhere as an example of how we might use comp or wcomp to trigger pins based on X axis position? I have built a 5 x 10 table and am building a zoned downdraft system for it with five zones. I want one zone open at a time based on position of the X axis; and a time delay so that open zones do not close for a few seconds after X has moved out of a zone. I am not concerned with the position of Y.Isn't this something that the built-on "comp" or "wcomp" components can do?

RodW and another member have such a system in use, so it can be done.
How, i'll leave that to them to explain.

I figured I'd probably take the component Rodw provided in
this thread
and modify it as needed for my table, but was wondering if there would be reasons why using built-in components would be better. For instance will the "halcompile" step be needed again after upgrading LinuxCNC? I built on MX Linux 21.
Then again, now it just occurred to me that as far as custom components go I'm using Rod's ohmic3.comp for ohmic probing with a THCAD-5. So... if custom components need to be reinstalled after upgrading I am not clear of that anyhow. I'll go study the downdraft component provided in the other thread some more.

I have a spindle support which is retracted and extended with a pneumatic cylinder. The cylinder is controlled via a relay which is controlled with a digital output of the Mesacard.
Attached is the comp file.
This is the hal entry
# --- Spindle support---
net position axis.x.pos-cmd => spport.position
net spport-trigger spport.trigger => hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.output-05
setp spport.on 700
setp spport.off 1900

I use a RPI4 and have to use inverted outputs, thus the not usage...
There are 6 (overlapping) segments configured on y axis.
