I understand that some interpreters write the current z,y,z etc values to memory registers (I believe Fanuc uses #5041-#5046) Would it be possible to add that to EMC2? at the end of each move would be often enough. It would be handy for "adaptive" G-gode modules so that you could jog to a start position and say "machine from here to X = 20 in .2 steps" I have managed to do it with G28.1 then reading from #5161, #5162, #5163, but as that stores absolute position I then have to back-calculate relative position from the G54 parameters (#5221, #5222, #5223) and the G92 offsets (#5211, #5212, #5213) and if there is any tool length offset set then all bets are off...
Actually, if G28.1 could "accidentally" store the relative positions as well as the absolute positons somewhere (for example in #5041 onwards, that would be great. -- atp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
