Hi Hakan
Thanks for the help I have configured to the directory now, but have a new error message ?

Hmm, did you by any chance comment out the loadrt cia402pv line?

But there must be a reason that linuxcnc won't find it.
It looks okay in your files.
Response is exactly like it is commented out.
I tested to comment out the loadrt line and got exactly thisI also tested to mis-spell cia402pv.Spindl in the loadrt line and got the same error.
Also mis-spelling on the addf line give the same error.
There is some mis-spelling between the loadrt and the addf lines
but I don't see what it is.
From the output messages this is the hal file linuxcnc uses
./hallib/EL8_machine.hal
That's the one you showed, right?
I don't know. Can you retype those two lines?

It's like cia402pv isn't loaded.
Try a new thing. The halrun utility, load the cia402pv component manually.This hopefully should work and produce a long list of pins and functions.

That looks perfectly fine.
What's the problem when this is called inside your hal file?
Let's try that. Add the line
show all
after the
loadrt cia402pv names=cia402pv.Spindle
line. It should show many more pins, also the cia402pv pins.
