Tool touchoff remap M6 hangs was created by frayja2002
Hi there
I am having a bit of trouble with an M6 remap setup.
I have set this up on one machine & everything works as expected.
I have set this up on another with only the obvious i/o & hal changes & when I try to call a T1M6 linuxcnc just hangs & gives no error.
Both configs reference the same M6 & M600 files so I do not believe the problem is there.
I have posted the config files.
If someone has some ideas i would be grateful as I am at a loss.
Thanks
Alex

Sorry all
I may have found the problem.
I missed the bit signaling the manual tool change.
is there a way to see what Linuxcnc is waiting for( just for future reference)
This has been a some what frustrating problem to chase.
Anyway here is the corrected file.

All pins, parameters, etc can be monitored using the included "show hal configuration" from the machine menu.

If the iocontrol.0.tool-change pin is connected to hal_manualtoolchange then there is a popup. And if it is connected directly to the iocontrol.0.tool-changed pin then there is no wait. If you leave the pin hanging, then you get the behaviour that you saw, and no clue why until you start looking at HAL pins, and you do need to know what to look at.
This is a configuration-time problem, though, not a use-time problem.

That was my immediate guess...I may have found the problem.
