button toggle output then also motion digital out on same output with or functio

Here is what I am trying to do.
Dust shoe needs to be controlled by button but the toolchange needs to to control it also.
the button must toggle it up, push button again then it goes down. That;s working by itself.

I need to have that output controlled by motion-digital-output also.

I tried running button through toggle function then feed to one leg of the or function. that doesn't work.
the toggle functions working and if I do the or function without toggle it is working but I can't get the output of
the toggle to feed the or and if I do would setting the motion digital out reset the toggle?

There should be pins like
prepare-tool
and
tool-is-changed
i am pretty sure i have seen something like that in LinuxCNC, so those would be your best bet.
Found it:

iocontrol.0.tool−change

(Bit, Out) TRUE when a tool change is requested

iocontrol.0.tool−changed

(Bit, In) Should be driven TRUE when a tool change is completed.

That's not what I am looking for. I am trying hal logic so I can toggle the dust shoe with a button and also the remap needs to raise the dust shoe.

The code below is working except I need a button to toggle the first input to the or function.

instead of hm2_7i92.0.7i76.0.0.input-08 in the first leg of the or function I need that to be output of a toggle function.

like so, except it don't work.

I got it to work except I don't know what motion-digital-out on the second leg will do to the toggle. If I set the digital out for that output will the toggle be set back?

Bevins, You'll be happy about this solution becasue you will get to do some coding in your beloved Python!

I don't know about tool changers but if you send digital pins (analog or digital) to a pin in your screen handler, you can add a python handler for the pin to change the value of the screen variable tat you change from the GUI. islander261 and I did this ages ago pre-plasmac and I think there might be some examples in the plasma section near the last page somewhere.

I am going to do it with hardware. I am tired of this software kicking my ass.....
