coolant mist pulses

Yes, there's another "not" component instantiated somewhere.
probably best to change the loadrt not command in the main hal
file so it instantiates all the "not" components needed

Another trick would be to sidestep the "not" issue
and use another (hopefully unused) function to get
the not functionality:

loadrt siggen
addf siggen.0.update servo-thread
setp siggen.0.frequency .1     # 10 second period)
loadrt oneshot
addf oneshot.0 servo-thread
setp oneshot.0.width 2           # 2 second on time
loadrt logic personality=2050
addf logic.0 servo-thread
setp logic.0.in01 true
net cool-trigger siggen.0.clock oneshot.0.in
net coolant-out oneshot.0.out [some_parallel_port_pin]
net coolant-on logic.0.in-00
net gate-coolant logic.0.nand  oneshot.0.reset siggen.0.reset  # when coolant is off, reset both siggen and oneshot


also note that "coolant-on" is a made up signal name, you need to replace it with the actual
signal name used in your configuration for this function

I made it work with the "NOT"

I changed

Loadrt not for loadrt not count=3 in main hal.
In postgui hal I have commented loadrt not
I also realized that I didn't change the name of "coolant-on" to the one in my configuration.

Now it works perfect.

What for any of you is a minute for me turns into days T_T
but I really like it because I'm learning a lot about linuxcnc.

thank you very much for the help.
 

LinuxCNC/HAL is very powerful and customizable once you get
over the learning curve, looks like you are getting there...
