I am tracking down where the soft limits are enforced within source. I am new to development on linuxcnc and read through the developer document but am still a little unclear and am trying to find my way around.
I am trying to allow for realtime changes to softlimits to allow for my tool change routine to move to a position that should not be reachable during normal toolpath execution as moving into that area with the spindle on would cause permenant damage to my brother t-217 tapping center. I have seen in command.c where the max limits are joint->max_pos_limit and are used for setting cont jogging etc. I am trying to find where this max_pos_limit is checked for enforcement. Can anyone guide me if changing this during runtime would be advisable. i.e. create a gcode that when executed allows for the engagement of an offset to max_pos_limit to allow the z axis to move up to tool change position and then once tool change is complete lower within limits and remove the offset? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated! -- -Roland ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
