If one has a pendant, it can be tested with sim configs
in the xhc-hb04 branch (configs/sim/axis/xhc-hb04). There
are two configs for the two known button configurations:
xhc-hb04-layout1.ini (16 buttons)
xhc-hb04-layout2.ini (18 buttons, most common)
The pendant i got has 18 buttons (layout2), is marked HB04 on
the front, and the label on the back is marked WHB04-L with a
date code 201312. It is working fine for me.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Some modifications were made to make it easy to add a pendant
to an existing configuration (no hal file edits are required).
>From the README:
An xhc-hb04 pendant can be added to existing configurations.
1) copy files to the configuration directory:
$ cp xhc-hb04.tcl your_config_dir/
$ cp xhc-hb04-layout*.cfg your_config_dir/
2) Edit existing configuration ini file to:
a) add [HAL]HALFILE=xhc-hb04.tcl
b) add stanza [XHC-HB04_CONFIG]
c) add stanza [XHC-HB04_BUTTONS]
c) add or update stanza for [HALUI]
See the demo ini files for more detailed examples.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Several folks have reported that the pendant stops updating.
On mine, if the pendant is idle (no buttons pressed, no wheel
movement) for approximately 40 seconds, the display stops
updating. Pressing any button restores display updating so I
just leave one button unassigned and press it to wake up the
pendant.
Running the xhc-hb04 program executed standalone as a simulator
now reports when it detects the pendant going to sleep; when
using with hal, a pin is created for the condition (xhc-hb04.sleeping)
I think it would be good to merge to master to get some
testing with other pendants.
