Hello, Pete brings up an interesting point. Is it allowed to issue some MDI commands while in e-stop reset or even e-stop mode? AXIS (the GUI) simply disables MDI while machine is not switched on. TkEMC relies on task to do the "right" thing, and enables MDI and allows users to send MDI commands, and task then discards the ones that are not allowed.
What do you (CNC users ;) think should be the reasonable thing to do while the machine is not switched on? I can see valid reasons to do both approaches: some M-commands might be usefull while in E-stop .. to make some clampings move, activate things, etc. Otoh one might argue that while e-stop nothing is allowed to move/change. Awaiting your input.
