How to right sequence run - pause -stop

this works

You astonish me.

net pause-btn toggle.0.in == pyvcp.prog-pause
net pause-btn toggle.0.in halui.program.pause
net all-paused toggle.0.out halui.program.resume

What on earth are you trying to achieve? That makes no sense at all.

The idea of toggle is that the output switches state every time you press the button. You would connect the input to the pyvcp button, and the output to the thing you want to switch.
To resume after pause, you would use an inverted version of the toggle output (which I am slightly surprised isn't a pin on the component). You can get the inverted value using:
www.linuxcnc.org/docview/html/man/man9/not.9.html
Which has an output of false if the input is true, and vice-versa.

Nope only one shows depending on the state of the control pin.

halui.program.run will only work when the machine is in the auto mode.
