this won't work either in sim mode or in reality, I tried something via chatgpt but I know that it doesn't work, it can't create a routine. here is my configuration if anyone is free to look at where the error is and what needs to be added in Hal eventually. Tx m6 works but will not return the tool to its pocket when you give it another tool, it also reports in the bottom line that there is no tool even though in reality it took it. each pocket has its own active high sensor on inputs 16-21 and the spindle has a sensor for ``flush'' input 10 the tool is in the spindle, input 12 reports that there is no tool in the spindle. Thanks

yes that is y-191, I got to the point where it wants to take the tool, but it won't put it back in the pocket when I choose a new one, down in the header it also says ``no tool''

Here is a video i did some 5 years ago, i tested the included rack toolchanger on a machine and it just worked after editing out the sim stuff:

You can try the same thing, namely, make the sim work on another config for parallel port (no need for a machine) and after getting this to work add the required entries from it to your machine config while also editing the tool positions.

yes, I saw it on YT that you were working, I just don't know which linuxcnc it was, mine is now 2.9.0 and when I export the sim configuration for racktoolchange, it puts it in the configuration, but Linux at the start shows some errors about gladevcp or something similar related to gtk and it won't run the simulation, maybe I should try to insert my ini and hal and leave the routine in the folder, or take the routine from that configuration and insert it into mine, I don't know.
