I needed to repeat particular g-code lines over and over again for one client and the way I did it was a little HAL magic to trigger halui.program.run pin. Basically at the end of file motion.digital.out-00 was triggered, sent to oneshot component, which had output duration of ~1 sec, oneshot.out was linked to and2.in0, but and2.in1 was linked to halui.program.is-idle, but and2.out was linked to halui.program.run; so whenever the g-code file was finished, HAL restarted it again. And You can add another and2 component to enable/disable this looping with VCP button or any physical button. Now I realized that it might had been easier to check for rising edge of halui.program-is-idle and feed that into oneshot component and tell it to trigger halui.program-run pin. -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
