If you select 'Utilities' > 'HalMeter' in the tklinux menu and select 'iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in' does it show TRUE ?

Peter, thank you for the guidance.  Once I re-enabled the PID stuff, things worked as expected.

I used the auto tuning steps and from there have been able to get to a good state.

i did and its not working, when i start sim tklinuxcnc its working

Have you clicked on the 'ESTOP' button in the tklinuxcnc gui to set 'Estop off' and 'Machine on'?

Note that you can use either a handler or the postgui halfile to make the connections.

That does not work because you have forgotten to give a signal name after the 'net' command.

I entered the command in postgui. This does not start linuxcnc. Do I have the correct command from Halshow for postgui.hal?

Not sure I understand this correctly but halshow does not make any distinction between postgui and regular hal files.
The regular hal files are read before the gui has loaded so if any gui related halpins are used in these files you will get a startup error because those pins are missing. The postgui halfile is read after the GUi and the custom panels have loaded.

thank you for the quick answer it is not working i tried everything its super strange.

It seems to be fixed now 10.10.25

I only became a Glade user today... so I don't have any experience yet. Please take a look at the attachments. I have the following questions:
Do I have to enter something in Glade -> Light Button -> Signals -> Handler? Do I enter this handler in postgui?

We have very similar goals. In the future, I also want an ATC and a fiber laser machine for metal cutting. I’ll be keeping an eye on BidSpotter as you mentioned, but I think I’ll end up buying the resonator and all the necessary parts for the fiber laser from some affordable Chinese supplier. Thank you so much for your support with the MPG, you’re a legend!

You'll need to make the hal connections in the postgui_hal file. Have a look at the millturn sim confi, (uses an xml instead of a glade file but the setup is the same.

Hello,
I would like to have a header on my Linuxcnc interface that switches Pin17=hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.output-00 on and off on my Mesa7i76e. So far, I have created an LED and a button in Glade. This already appears on the Linuxcnc interface, but no control content is stored. How do I proceed? I tried to do some preliminary work on the Glade page, but failed. What do I need to do and where?
Thank you

OK...so would I still need a new INI file?...I have been trying to make a new configuration by copying original which has 9 axis, but it is not working..was just copying and renaming...missing something....but if that is not necessary even better!!

Thanks again,

Rick

In [EMCMOT] section of your ini file you need to remove this line:

The ini file parser takes the first match when looking for a keyword hence the next line with the 'unlock_joints_mask' is not taking effect.
