Get it from my web page. You should know that I am pulling and rebuilding 
master for the rpi4 at some point every weekend. Goto the link in my 
sig, then add lathe-stf/ to the address bar, and you will see a dir 
listing, click on linuxcnc4rpi4, and get 
linuxcnc-doc-en_2.9.0~pre0_all.deb. But I see a gfx add during this 
mornings git pull so it might not be page 812 any more. Is now on page 
814 according to evince:

14.15.6.6
get_value
read a pin, param or signal directly.
example:
value = hal.get_value("iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in"):

Thats copy/pasted from the docs I built this morning on the rpi4.
Just installed it on mine, appears to work, so in 15 minutes or less you 
should see todays date on that stuff at the link described above.
 
All done, ready for your downloading pleasure.  Be my guest.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
