Connecting a tool setter and touch probe at the same time

I did not see any other input other than motion.probe-in, is this used for both a tool length setter and a touch probe?  My HW will support several inputs, and I would like to have each hard-wired in, without the need to swap cables, etc.

Is there a dedicated motion input for a tool length setter? If not what is the best means to have to separate HW inputs?

Thanks!!!
 

Linuxcnc only has one probe input.
You need to devise a way to check which probing method is in use in hal.
One simple way would be to set a digital input in  gcode before probing for tool height. 

Thanks, and to confirm both tool setting and probing use "probe-input"?

If so, then I am considering using mux2 and utilizing M64 and M65 to select which digital input the tool setter and digital probe are connected to.

Its way more easy. You can connect two hardware inputs to the probe-input without having to choose the specific one. As long as you do not disconnect for example the 3d probe and having a active probe signal by that.

In this case you can have a workaround and setting the input of the 3d probe to a ignored one while not having a specific tool in the machine. So for example 3d Probe is tool 1 and tool 1 is not in the machine -> disable the hw input of the 3d probe.

I took a slightly different direction.  By adding a "probe-connected"  hw pin, I can select probe or toolsetter.  This also has the benefit of checking if the probe is connected in the probe sub routine.

As my probe uses a USB-C connector, it's not a USB device; it simply uses D- and D+ as the trigger pins.  And the fact that USB-C can be flipped, I was able to use the CC pins (which are tied together on the probe's USB port) to have a hardware pin when the touch probe cable is connected.

BTW: the toolset I have is NC, so I needed to invert the pin. (I guess lcec does not support '-not')
