Probe basic jog wheel MPG help

I'm having a bit of a problem with probe basic due to the lack of hal pins. I had my MPG working with axis gui. I used the axis selection and the jog increment from the axisgui hal pins to select the jog axis and the increment.

Now when i switch to probe basic I don't get any hal pins to work with. Can i add custom hal pins?

What files do i need to edit?

I'm running 5i25 with 7i76d and a 100ppr mpg.
I'm a newbie to linuxcnc any help is appreciated.

not sure of this helps, but this is my mpg hal file:

```
#file name mpg.hal

loadrt mux4 count=1
loadrt ilowpass

addf mux4.0 servo-thread
addf ilowpass.0 servo-thread

setp ilowpass.0.scale 100
setp ilowpass.0.gain 0.01
setp joint.0.jog-accel-fraction .5
setp joint.1.jog-accel-fraction .5
setp joint.2.jog-accel-fraction .5
setp joint.3.jog-accel-fraction .5

net x-jog-select joint.0.jog-enable <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-20
net y-jog-select joint.1.jog-enable <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-21
net z-jog-select joint.2.jog-enable <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-22
net a-jog-select joint.3.jog-enable <= hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-23

net x10 hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-26 => mux4.0.sel0
net x100 hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.input-27 => mux4.0.sel1

setp mux4.0.in0 .000001
setp mux4.0.in1 .00001
setp mux4.0.in2 .0001

net jogscale mux4.0.out => joint.0.jog-scale
net jogscale => joint.1.jog-scale
net jogscale => joint.2.jog-scale
net jogscale => joint.3.jog-scale

net mpg-out hm2_7i92.0.7i77.0.0.enc0.count => ilowpass.0.in

net jogcounts ilowpass.0.out => joint.0.jog-counts
net jogcounts => joint.1.jog-counts
net jogcounts => joint.2.jog-counts
net jogcounts => joint.3.jog-counts

net jogcounts => axis.x.jog-counts
net x-jog-select => axis.x.jog-enable
net jogscale => axis.x.jog-scale

net jogcounts => axis.y.jog-counts
net y-jog-select => axis.y.jog-enable
net jogscale => axis.y.jog-scale

net jogcounts => axis.z.jog-counts
net z-jog-select => axis.z.jog-enable
net jogscale => axis.z.jog-scale

net jogcounts => axis.a.jog-counts
net a-jog-select => axis.a.jog-enable
net jogscale => axis.a.jog-scale
```

Thanks guys for your kind support. I'm working on that hal file. But the issue is not having any hal pins from the probe basic itself. I couldn't find a good workaround. So I decided to go with physical input switches rather than trying to use hal pins from the gui.

If you guys can implement hal pins from the gui I suppose it can be incredibly useful.

Tommylight Thank you for helping out always. I'll start a detailed thread on my conversion hopefully it will be a help to someone.

I'll definitely post a detailed thread on this.

I found a old Okuma Howa NC Mill on yard for a pretty good deal.







So bought the thing and did a tear down and slowly started working.

This thing had the biggest servo I had ever seen in a CNC mill. this thing also had gear boxes. I converted them to belt drive.

Few photos of the panel.





Machine is looking a bit shiny now and I'm still waiting for two pulleys to be machined.



The servo drive I choose is pretty interesting they can have a linear encoder input to perform a closed loop operation at the drive. I'll try my best to post a good informative thread.
