All the information you seek is available in the parameters: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/gcode/overview.html#_parameters_variables_a_id_sec_parameters_a #5220 tells you which coordinate system is currently active. #5221 through #5390 tells you the offsets of all the coordinate systems (relative to g53). g92 stuff is in #5210-#5219. But that doesn't help you much, because parameters are not accessible in HAL…. Something sort of similar to what you asked for is available in HAL via the halui.axis pins, see the halui(1) manpage. (It might make sense to extend halui to expose parameters and/or emc stat fields to HAL.) -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
