You don't need a new component for connecting commanded to feedback position
when the joint is disengaged, and the mux component can already do this function.

That is not the tricky part anyway, the tricky part is returning to LinuxCNC control after
the hand motionsĀ  were completed.

Ideally there would be a per joint enable signal (that forced LinuxCNCs internal commanded
position to track the feedback position when disabled) but lacking that, a simple hal profile
generator (using limit3 for example) could be enabled to move to the original position
before control is handed back to LinuxCNC.

Good morning everyone and thanks for the replies.
It's clearly a machine axis, the Z axis.
The machine is old, and in some operations, it's more convenient to be able to drill manually. We're talking about a machine that works with enormous cast iron bases, 10 meters long, so it must have maximum flexibility.

Rown, basically, using your component, I would have:
net Zenable joint.2.amp-enable-out pid.2.enable isfreewheeling
net Zpos-cmd joint.2.motor-pos-cmd pid.2.command
net Zpos-fb joint.2.motor-pos-fb pid.2.feedback

But I don't understand where to connect: pos_fb_out
