I am glad that the videos were helpful.

I will be covering the HAL tools in some upcoming videos.

For now you can see the official man page for halmeter here:

http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man1/halmeter.1.html 
<http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/man/man1/halmeter.1.html>

I believe that you can launch the halmeter boxes automatically by adding 
the commands to the launcher for your config. Can't really say for 
certain right now but I can try it when I get back to my machine. Maybe 
one of the wizards can chime in here. I am just an apprentice and 
haven't graduated to wizard yet and probably won't for many years.

You can also see how to use it in the HAL manual here

http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/hal/tutorial.html#_halmeter 
<http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/html/hal/tutorial.html#_halmeter>

You can access the halmeter from the GUI's also. I don't remember 
exactly where it is in Axis as I don't use it very much, but it is 
located on the bottom of the settings page in Gmoccapy.

Hope that helps.

Jim
