I implemented this with EMC in just one evening in under 2 hours. It is just awesome! Now M64 P0 and M65 P0 simulate "pressing a button" on the Haas 5C indexer and it advances by one step. I wrote a subroutine called advance_indexer that does M64 P0 G4 P0.2 M65 P0 So it simulates a full butto

I would like to finalize wiring a rotary indexer. I mentioned it here previously, it is a Haas 5C rotary indexer with a "remote button", such that if you press it by hand, the indexer gets a signal and advanced by the predefined angle. I believe that the sequence of M64 P1 G4 P0.25 M65 P1 would

The exact error message you're getting would be helpful. I'm guessing it's actually this message, with %s replaced by the name of the signal: "HAL: ERROR: insufficient memory for signal '%s'\n" is that correct? If so, you're probably also bumping the limit on the hal shared memory segment. Y
