halui − observe HAL pins and command EMC through NML |
|
halui [-ini <path-to-ini>] |
|
halui is used to build a User Interface using hardware knobs and switches. It experts a big number of pins, and acts accordingly when these change. |
|
-ini name |
|
use the name as the configuration file. Note: halui must find the nml file specified in the ini, usually that file is in the same folder as the ini, so it makes sense to run halui from that folder. |
|
When run, halui will export a large number of pins. A user can connect those to his physical knobs & switches & leds, and when a change is noticed halui triggers an appropriate event. |
|
halui expects the signals to be debounced, so if needed (bad knob contact) connect the physical button to a HAL debounce filter first. |
