Any quick tips how to implement this would be nice, I'm still relaying on myself that after homing will press shift+4 to enter world mode before start jog... Just a thought... I'm also using gantry style of machine (with slightly modified 5axiskins) and before I switched to linuxcnc, I was using mach3, and there were also two features, that I'm missing in linuxcnc. First one is in case of gantry, when first of parallel axis reaches home switch, waits for the second one and then together make move to home offset (if there is home offset set)... in linuxcnc the axis after reaching home switch immediately go on home offset... probably this could be done with a bit customized hal? Second future was deceleration (for a settable distance) before hitting limit switch or software limit, so if you are not careful and jog with "high speed" all the way to the limit, you have no chance to hit limit with that speed and cause sudden stop and "mechanical" stress to machine...Can be this done with customization of hal? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
