Spindle Inhibit while Probing.....

Excellent.
I am updating the docs on this a bit. hopefully you can critique the docs update later
when I push them.

Well, as soon as the po4a bug gets fixed, and Seb's buildbot2 makes a bookworm master deb, I'll try it on my mill.
I've been using my desk demo setup for builds and testing.
Not going to do a build on my mill system.
i'll let ya know how it goes, whenever it does....

Chris. appologies for bring this up again.
I have notices a pin named 'qtversaprobe.enable'
what is it? and where does it come from?
it is an output of something......

Maybe this helps:
linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gui/qtdragon.html

 

thanks for the reference. I had not noticed that.
BUT, I have tested probing, and qtversaprobe.enable never comes on.
and qtdragon.spindle-inhibit does not come on either.

I have some hal set up to inhibit the spindle when the probe is loaded. Neither .enable or .spindle-inhibit are used. they are both outputs.
Outputs of what?????? that's what I would like to know,

fyi. I am using a deb from Seb's buildbot2 for bookworm/master. about a week old.

Probably what the docs say, you would connect .spindle-inhibit in hal to .:

 

.enable reflects the screen button state.
