Here is a starting approach, but I don't know how to code the offset.

I also don't know how to make this code run in a loop on SimCNC.

I have always executed Python code based on a G-code command.

For example, if M6 is called in the G-code, then the Python script M6.py is executed.

# Define physical inputs on the CSMIO/IP-S
input_start = 10 # Input number for start
input_pause = 11 # Input number for pause
input_offset = 12 # Input number for X+20 offset

# Function to read inputs and take action accordingly
def check_buttons():
mod_IP = d.getModule(ModuleType.IP, 0) # Connect to CSMIO/IP-S

if mod_IP.getDigitalIO(IOPortDir.InputPort, input_start) == DIOPinVal.PinSet:
print("Button 1 pressed: Machine started")
d.enableMachine(True) # Enable the machine

if mod_IP.getDigitalIO(IOPortDir.InputPort, input_pause) == DIOPinVal.PinSet:
print("Button 2 pressed: Machine paused")
d.enableMachine(False) # Disable the machine

if mod_IP.getDigitalIO(IOPortDir.InputPort, input_offset) == DIOPinVal.PinSet:
print("Button 3 pressed: Offset X+20")
d.execCode("G92 X+20") # Send G92 X+20 to the controller

# Main loop (if needed, adjust based on your setup)
while True:
check_buttons()
time.sleep(0.1) # Small delay to prevent spamming

Hello.
I have a question, how is it possible to turn on the program with the input from CSMIO/IP-A and with the second input I change the work offset and turn on the program with the third input I turn on the program pause?
Is this possible to do?

Take a look at the attachment.
