 +====== Using the HAL with the GPIO Subsystem ======
 +In the EEROS library you will find a directory with examples. For this example see [[https://github.com/eeros-project/eeros-framework/blob/master/examples/hal/HalTest4.cpp|HalTest4.cpp]]. 
  
 +The system either uses real hardware inputs and output or makes use of a simulated gpio device. You need to install the necessary wrapper library for gpio, see [[getting_started:install_wrapper|]]. 
 +
 +When using a simulated gpio device, make sure to load the kernel driver first and then create the device with
 +<code>
 +$ sudo modprobe gpio-sim
 +$ sudo mkdir /sys/kernel/config/gpio-sim/ofagpio 
 +$ sudo mkdir /sys/kernel/config/gpio-sim/ofagpio/bank0
 +$ echo 32 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/config/gpio-sim/ofagpio/bank0/num_lines
 +$ echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/kernel/config/gpio-sim/ofagpio/live
 +</code>
 +
 +Make sure that your local user has access to the device file.
 +<code>
 +$ sudo chown $USER:$USER /dev/gpiochip0
 +</code>
 +Open a shell in the build directory of your EEROS library and run  
 +<code>
 +$ ./examples/hal/halTest4 -c HalTest4ConfigGpio.json  
 +</code>
 +
 +It will start in safety level //slOne// and mirror the digital input channel 1 to output channel 0. You can check this behavior with
 +<code>
 +$ echo pull-up | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip0/sim_gpio1/pull
 +</code>
 +or
 +<code>
 +$ echo pull-down | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip0/sim_gpio1/pull
 +</code>
 +while reading the state of channel 0 with
 +<code>
 +$ cat /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip0/sim_gpio0/value
 +</code>
 +
 +Next, change the state of channel 16. This is a critical input in the safety system and causes a transition to safety level //slTwo// when pulled up. 
 +<code>
 +$ echo pull-up | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip0/sim_gpio16/pull
 +</code>
 +To change back to //slOne// change the level back to '0'.
 +<code>
 +$ echo pull-down | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/gpio-sim.0/gpiochip0/sim_gpio16/pull
 +</code>
