HAL Connections

You have motion.spindle-on in two places. The tutorial assumes you did not use motion.spindle-on yet.

Did you use the Stepconf Wizard to generate your configuration?

If so change

net spindle-state gladevcp.hal_led1 <= motion.spindle-on

to

net spindle-on gladevcp.hal_led1

I am not sure about the Glade problem, but the LinuxCNC not-starting problem is that your HAL files are trying to create two signals linked to motion.spindle-on (and there can be only one)

Your line
net spindle-state <= motion.spindle-on

is conflicting with another HAL command
net spindle-on <= motion.spindle-on.

The solution is to re-use the spindle-on signal, ie change your postgui file entry to

net spindle-on gladevcp.hal_led1

It will then crash at the next line, because I suspect that motion.spindle-speed-out is also already net-ed.
The next line in the postgui HAL needs to read (at a guess)

net spindle-speed gladevcp.hal_meter1
(though I am not entirely sure what signal name stepconf will have chosen for the spindle speed)

Hi all,

I tried to connect it according to the manual.
It could not be complete by my poor skill about linux though it could be shown into a tab.
gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/gladevcp/gladevcp03.html

If I could do it, I would connect them to EMC action Run and action (all) home with new buttons like the way.
Please let me know that too.

That is a tutorial and relies on you using the supplied configuration files from the tutorial.

Did you follow the instructions in the tutorial to edit the postgui.hal file?

It will be able to count the number of times to be turned on by hal_ led?

Possibly. You could use a hal encoder module counter mode, for example. Or add some code to the Glade.
There might even be a counter as a Glade Hal widget. (I haven't used Glade much yet)
