Yep, says so right here:

So it has gotta be true...

i saw that but thought since i was creating pins in XML, it created the pin there also.
i need to start using the pyvcp section in the halui section better, don't think of looking there.
but this'll be a great reminder for me.
Thanks.

i find that the speed of my mouse click changes rather or not
the run/stop button works. below work except i get an error msg with the
stop. sometime i get an error msg with the run. no way to
change the effect of the mouse clicking ?
net run-prog pyvcp.run-prog == halui.program.run toggle.1.in halui.mode.auto
net stop-prog axisui.set-manual-mode == toggle.1.out halui.program.stop
or
net toggle pyvcp.run-prog and2.5.in0 halui.mode.auto halui.program.run
net stop and2.5.in1 halui.mode.manual
net run halui.program.stop and2.5.out
the run/stop button works. below work except i get an error msg with the
stop. sometime i get an error msg with the run. no way to
change the effect of the mouse clicking ?
net run-prog pyvcp.run-prog == halui.program.run toggle.1.in halui.mode.auto
net stop-prog axisui.set-manual-mode == toggle.1.out halui.program.stop
or
net toggle pyvcp.run-prog and2.5.in0 halui.mode.auto halui.program.run
net stop and2.5.in1 halui.mode.manual
net run halui.program.stop and2.5.out

My guess is you have set up a race track condition where sometimes it works and sometimes not. Each time you press pyvcp.run-prog halui.program.run is turned on... every other time halui.program.stop AND halui.program.run is turned on... so this is the source of your error.
The mouse click speed might be due to the race track condition where ever other press of the mouse EMC is trying to start and stop at the same time.

"toggle" changes the value from true to false(or 1 to 0) without having to
have the opposite in the net connect ? i'm lost as to what toggle,
not, or and xor do. do they not change the state to the opposite of what
is being used? i tried to use not, but it slows emc a lot. changed back to
toggle and all is normal.
so i can just use halui.program.start and it will be toggled ?
net run-btn toggle.0.in == pyvcp.start-button
net stop-btn toggle.0.out == halui.program.run

The not component reverses the logic of a pin.
So for example
net run-btn toggle.0.in <= pyvcp.start-button
net run-pgm toggle.0.out => halui.program.run
net run-pgm not.0.in
net stop-pgm not.0.out => halui.program.stop
The above "might" work as long as you don't stop the program via the esc key or the program has ended then your toggle is out of sync with EMC.
The only way it will really work is if your code only starts if the program is stopped and only stops if the program is running.
Is this just a mental challenge or do you really need a single input to be a run/stop button?

thanks, just a mental thing. it's how i learn. trial and error.(lots of errors)
been looking at classicladder, should i stay where i'm at for now.(your opinion).
can i use the ladder to get past where i'm at ?
p.s. plus i don't give up easily

Ok, the only way I can see a start stop button working is to do something like the following. Component names might not be exact I'm shooing from the hip.
pyvcp.button > oneshot.0.in
oneshot.0.out > and2.0.in0 and2.1.in0
halui.is-running > and2.0.in1
halui.is-stopped > and2.1.in1
and2.0.out > halui.stop
and2.1.out . halui.run
Configure the oneshot like my pause resume example. The oneshot prevents from bouncing back and forth with run stop as each time you press the pyvcp button you only get one output pulse.

Ok I was totally off the wall with the oneshot... must have been drinking :/
Take a look a the hal examples now for the pause resume.
It took a combination of toggle and 4 and2's to make it work...
