Replied by irgendwannklappts on topic signal tool change complete with physical panel button
Hey,
thanks for the work, this is exactly what i looked for months.   BUT, on my Debian System with LinuxCnc, i could only find the gmoccapy.py and its at another place. the others are not on my computer.  Is this a debian fault or mine?

Many thanks
AB

The dialog.py should be on your system as well. But just replacing the files won't in most cases especially NOT if you are running LinuxCNC 2.8 what I assume. This addition is only available in 2.9.

Norbert,
Was the HAL pin for 'manual tool change confirmation dialog' ever implemented ?
I'm in the process of changing from par ports to mesa 7i92 and moving the PC out of the machine cabinet, as such my keyboard hack for a physical button on the control panel to press the 'Enter' key is no longer practical and with the larger amounts of i/p pins on the mesa card I would like to hook the physical button to a mesa gpio i/p pin and use that to clear the gmoccapy tool change dialog popup

now using 2.9.8 latest build

answering my own question, the pin is gmoccapy.toolchange-confirm

I connected this in postguihal as below -

net tool-change-button => hm2_7i92,0,gpio.028.in_not <= gmoccapy.toolchange-confirm
