Script bash

Hi All



I'm trying with INI FILTER. and need to have a reaction when some pin becomes true.
My script


#!/bin/bash

halcmd getp parport.0.pin-01-in
#halcmd gets signal_button
if [ $? eq 1 ]

float=$1
int=${float/\.*}

cat $1 |sed 's/x\([ ]*\)\([-0-9\.]*\)/x[-1*[\2]]/g'

then
exit 0


Don't work for me .
Any ideas?

Hi

Afraid can't see the connection between the INI section [FILTER], which is largely for programs converting some other form of input into gcode and testing a pin value.

The easiest way to test a pin is inside HAL, rather than in a bash script.

Do you just want to display something or are you wanting to use the value?

It looks like your script is being called as M1XX Pnn , so the value is already known
If the signal is true, I think the idea is to display a positive integer representation of the number in Pnn
However you are converting Pnn to an integer and then using the original float value anyway, so not quite sure what you are trying to do.

Outline exactly what you are trying to achieve and I am sure we can either suggest how to get your method to work, or suggest a better way

regards

Thanks for response.
I will try to explaine.
When I put single string :

cat $1 |sed 's/x\([ ]*\)\([-0-9\.]*\)/x[-1*[\2]]/g'



I have a symetry but it should have a place when I turn on the button on the right side my maschine.
Aditionaly changing orgin ,and some owords
next step schould be Axis refresch/reload.

When I press button on the left side should nothing happen.
I hoppe now it's clear what I want to achieve.
Regards

Hallo ,English it's not my native language ,so maybe some description aren't like I want.
The main idea is to use section Filter in INI to have symetry.
MY machine BIESSE 346ATC have big table 3500 X 1350 and I can put material ones on the left side and then on the right.
To start proces (g-code) I put real button left or right.
When press left button should nohing happen ,when right FILTER should work.

Thanks for response
Regards

The part many times are diferent .

"Is the idea to load one part while another is being made on the same table?"

Yes

Before changing control I used it possibility realy often.

Do you think that Filter is wrong way?

Thanks.

Ok I understend and agree with you.
Ones I need parts identical but next time I have to produce one piece right or left.
My machine have horizotal drills and it schould by change acording to location component{material).
Thanks.

"Yes, I think it makes more sense to run identical G-code in a different coordinate system than to change the G-code."

My main production is creating kitchen cabinet but not series only one set.
Therfore writing one g-code and use Filter to create mirror part it's for me big facilitation and prevents mistakes.

Now I use MDI COMMAND to some simple things ,but I don't know nothing about existence chance to change words inside g-code using MDI COMMANDS.
Bash gives my ability to find and replace some words/sign,of course Python too.
I'm learning all time but knowledge is like bottomless pit

Ofcourse I'm realy happy that now I have LINUXCNC instead of old CNI control.

I belive that exist solution to have (symetry/mirroror something like this)
Thanks.

Regars.
