Hello First post i think.
i have a vfd set up on a serial usb adaptor.
every think has worked fine for me a year ago i switched to a newer virson of LinuxCNC.
after getting every thing set up again i have one problem i can not figure out.
the machine will not wait for the cutter to come up to speed.
in my custom.hal
and in the custom postgui.hal i have
not sure what i need to do to get it to wait.
thanks

in my custom.hal
loadusr -Wn vfd hy_vfd -n vfd -d /dev/ttyUSB0 -p none -r 9600
net spindle-fwd spindle.0.forward => vfd.spindle-forward
net spindle-reverse spindle.0.reverse => vfd.spindle-reverse
net spindle-speed-cmd spindle.0.speed-out-abs => vfd.speed-command
net spindle-on spindle.0.on => vfd.spindle-on
net spindle-at-speed => vfd.spindle-at-speed
net spindle-at-speed => gmoccapy.spindle_at_speed_led
#net vfd.Rott <= gmoccapy.spindle_feedback_bar
net hy_RPM vfd.spindle-speed-fb => gmoccapy.spindle_feedback_bar
and in the custom postgui.hal i have
setp vfd.enable 1
not sure what i need to do to get it to wait.
thanks

Think your error is in this part:
Basically your connecting the signal spindle-at-speed to both the VFD and the UI (outwards). Should that not be information coming from your spindle and sending to the UI, i.e. like this (note the changed arrow):
I prefer that signals which rely only on two pins, to use the single line notation. The example below reads to me that the signal spindle-at-speed connects the VFD to the UI in a very natural way.
net spindle-at-speed => vfd.spindle-at-speed
net spindle-at-speed => gmoccapy.spindle_at_speed_led

All the above are true (<= and =>) Linuxcnc does not take any notice and can be left out

Make sure spindle.0.at-speed is connected to the net spindle-at-speed, like this
net spindle-at-speed spindle.0.at-speed
