I can't qualify it as "rarely-used" here, Andy. I don't have a hal file that doesn't have some outputs that are there just to watch something. Most often would be the output of several modules, that if I put a halmeter on that point will tell me how far it overshoots in encoder counts, while doing a g33.1's reversal at maximum penetration. On TLM, with its on purpose slow reversal (so I don't break drive parts, that motor can if just reversed) I find that with that fairly heavy 5" chuck, the turn-around overshoot is so large that doing rigid tapping at more than 200 rpm isn't worth the effort because it will coast on, running the tap to the bottom of the hole and pull back a broken tap. Not exactly economical. 250 rpm=3.4 turns of the chuck. > This actually turns out to be a rather simple change. Good. I'd assume it only applies to bit states?
