disable pin

I'm new to pyvcp. Does someone knows how the disable pin works?

I know that the basic code is <disable_pin>true</disable_pin>. First i tried to put de name of the disable pin between the tags. Then i put the link in the custom_ postgui.hal. Then when I run emc2 (axis), i get a error saying that "-disable_pin" is a unknown option.

Already, thanks for the help.

<led>
<disablepin>True</disablepin>
</led>

try that

Seems I intended the key word to be disable_pin but used disablepin instead.

led , rect led, labels and buttons can use disable pins for your info.

That doesn't seem to work either. If a run it in emc2, and look with the halmeter. There's still no disable pin availeble.
I also tried to put true between the "" tags.

But there was no error?
what version on EMC are you using?
please post your pyvcp file

no, there was no error.
The version i am using is 2.3.4.

Thanks for the help.

disable pins are only avaiable in emc 2.4
Strange there was no error

Alright, still thanks for the quick replies.

if it is really important to you you can try out emc 2.4 (pre-release)
this is how:
emc2-buildbot.colorado.edu/~buildmaster/
by the way don't use quotes around True for disable pins

Sorry it didn't work out
Chris

for anyone reading this I fixed 2.4 to use the correct spelling.
<disable_pin>True</disable_pin>
