 ===== Accessing Output Signals Directly =====
-A peripheral output block delivers a signal to external hardware. Its signal value can be accessed with a get method, see line 46 in the example code in ''halTest1.cpp''.
+A peripheral output block delivers a signal to external hardware. Its signal value can be accessed with a get method, see line 46 in the comment in the example code in ''halTest1.cpp''.
+Alternatively the signal in the HAL could be accessed by getting an reference to the corresponding output block with
+<code cpp>
+auto digOut = hal.getLogicOutput("dOut0", false);  //line 42
+</code>
+The signal value can then be logged with
+block with
+<code cpp>
+log.info() << digOut->get(); // line 47
+</code>
+You have to make sure to access the output with non-exclusive rights, because the control system already has a handle to it, see line 28 in ''halTest1.hpp''. Likewise, the control system must access the same output in the same fashion.
