Problem to run a program with external cycle start was created by ioiotutu
Hi,
i have added a second parallel port to my cnc to have cycle start, cycle stop button.
My hardware connects the start button to pin 10, stop button to pin 12 and resume button to pin 13.
I have these lines on my configuration file:
#Hal lines
net remrun halui.program.run <= parport.1.pin-10-in
net remstart halui.program.pause <= parport.1.pin-12-in
net remstop halui.program.resume <= parport.1.pin-13-in
#
If I run program with a play key on AXIS gui the stop and resume button work ok, but if i try to start the program with the external button (remstart) i have an error message: command not accepted in manual mode.
Is it possible run a program with external button like play button in AXIS gui?
Thanks.

I think the button also needs to set halui.mode.auto at the same time.
linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gui_halui.html
You might even need a delay function to make sure that mode.auto is set prior to program-run.

Thanks,
I builded a pyvcp key to set halui.mode.auto. If i press pyvcp button and then the remote start button the program run fine.
How can i build a delay in hal?

You might not need the delay. What happens if you just add halui.mode.auto to the same "net" line in the HAL file as the program run?
If that doesn't work then I can explain how to add a delay, but there is no point if it is not needed.

I modified my line in this way:
#Hal lines
net remrun halui.mode.auto <= parport.1.pin-10-in
net remrun => halui.program.run
net remstart halui.program.pause <= parport.1.pin-12-in
net remstop halui.program.resume <= parport.1.pin-13-in
#
The command work fine! Many thanks.
How can i write the command on the same line?
#Hal lines
net remrun halui.mode.auto <= parport.1.pin-10-in
net remrun => halui.program.run
net remstart halui.program.pause <= parport.1.pin-12-in
net remstop halui.program.resume <= parport.1.pin-13-in
#

Any net command can have one signal name, one output pin and as many input pins as you need.
net remrun halui.mode.auto <= parport.1.pin-10-in
net remrun => halui.program.run

sorry for digging that topic, but i have queastion about it.
I made remrun button and its work fine. Problem is, that i can in middle of the program start it from beginning.
How i can configure it to, only allow run program when machine end previous one?
regards,
Piotr

Possibly with HAL "and2" and "not" functions.
ie, cycle-start <= pyvcp-button AND (NOT program-is-running)

don't know what a remrun button is but i have this example you
may be able to use. it's a home x axis button. i can only use it while
nothing is running.(thanks BigJohnT) . while my program is
running, i can click it and nothing happens. hope this helps.
xml
<button>
<relief>RAISED</relief>
<halpin>"just-home-x"</halpin>
<text>"Zero X"</text>
<font>('Helvetica',16)</font>
<fg>"midnightblue"</fg>
<bd>2</bd>
</button>
custom_postgui.hal
net home-x-btn and2.0.in0 == pyvcp.just-home-x
net home-x halui.joint.0.home == and2.0.out
net hom-in-man and2.0.in1 halui.mode.is-manual
