iocontrol - interacts with HAL or G-code in userspace
[EMCIO]
EMCIO = io
or
EMCIO = iov2
I/O control
handles I/O tasks like coolant, toolchange, e-stop and lube.
The signals are turned on and off in userspace with G-code
or in the case of e-stop in hal.
I/O Control V2 (iov2) adds more toolchager support for
communication with the toolchanger.
Whether io or iov2 is used can be chosen in the [EMCIO] section of the INI file.
