Does this help?

I already had seen this link, I tryed to use the following code on my .py file:
Code:
import linuxcnc
s = linuxcnc.stat()
c = linuxcnc.command()
def ok_for_mdi():
s.poll()
return not s.estop and s.enabled and s.homed and (s.interp_state == linuxcnc.INTERP_IDLE)
if ok_for_mdi():
c.mode(linuxcnc.MODE_MDI)
c.wait_complete() # wait until mode switch executed
c.mdi("G0 X10 Y20 Z30")
hopping to see to be executed on simulation, but without success.
regarding the original idea of the topic, using a keystroke as an hal pin, in axis.py file, next to line 3226 I find this:
Code:
if hal_present == 1 :
comp = hal.component("axisui")
comp.newpin("jog.x", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.y", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.z", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.a", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.b", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.c", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.u", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.v", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.w", hal.HAL_BIT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("jog.increment", hal.HAL_FLOAT, hal.HAL_OUT)
comp.newpin("notifications-clear",hal.HAL_BIT,hal.HAL_IN)
comp.newpin("notifications-clear-info",hal.HAL_BIT,hal.HAL_IN)
comp.newpin("notifications-clear-error",hal.HAL_BIT,hal.HAL_IN)
comp.newpin("resume-inhibit",hal.HAL_BIT,hal.HAL_IN)
that create the axisui pins, but if I changed the name of one of these pins, when start linuxcnc I can´t see any difference in axisui pin names.
So, I'm missing something...
