motion.spindle-speed-in IN FLOAT Actual spindle speed feedback in revolutions per second; used for G96 (constant surface speed) and G95 (feed per revolution) modes. Because important things don't work without it, I think all lathes will have a signal here, whether it comes from an encoder (directly or through a ddt) or it's just a loopback from the commanded spindle speed (in the no spindle encoder case). I'd go ahead and depend on it being there, if it solves a problem. Maybe also add another note to the documentation here? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
