Userspace HAL components are those that are started with "halcmd loadusr" rather than "halcmd loadrt" They run their own internal user-space mainloop and do not need to be added to a realtime thread (in fact they can't be added to a thread) They are useful for UI interaction, access to the file system, serial and USB access etc. This is why modbus and the VFD drivers are typically user_comps. thermistor.comp is an example, though there is no reason that particular component needed to be userspace as far as I can see. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
