I have purchased an XHC-HB04 pendant (18 button wired version) but I'm having no luck getting it to work with LinuxCNC. Once I modified the .ini file to include the pendant, LinuxCNC will no longer start up. I've attached my .ini file and the error screen.

Anybody have any idea what's going on?

The order of [HAL]HALFILES can be important:

Code:

[HAL]HALFILE = LIB:xhc-hb04.tcl
This HALFILE entry should follow other HALFILE entries.

Ref: github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/2.7/co...axis/xhc-hb04/README

So try changing:

Code:

[HAL]
HALFILE = LIB:xhc-hb04.tcl
HALFILE = CarveZilla.hal
HALFILE = custom.hal
POSTGUI_HALFILE = custom_postgui.hal
HALUI = halui

to:

Code:

[HAL]
HALFILE = CarveZilla.hal
HALFILE = custom.hal
HALFILE = LIB:xhc-hb04.tcl
POSTGUI_HALFILE = custom_postgui.hal
HALUI = halui

You are the hero of the day! We made that one change and now it is basically up and running! We have some button changes we need to make, but the basics are there.

Thank you, sir! May the sun forever shine in your neck of the woods...
