As just a user, my understanding is, it is in auto mode because MDI mode is unusable until the machine is homed, homing is done in auto mode. Perhaps a 3rd mode should be created, an "Initialization Mode" where homing is done. Many other machine controls have this, but I don't know that it is nessisary.
I do tend to agree the problem isn't so much with Axis' choice of start mode, but in his components methods of activation. ----- Original Message ----- From: "andy pugh" <bodge...@gmail.com> To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" <emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Monday, March 9, 2015 11:12:39 AM Subject: Re: [Emc-users] Axis starts up in Auto mode On 9 March 2015 at 15:05, Sebastian Kuzminsky <s...@highlab.com> wrote: > I think your tool changer should take an enable input, which should be > tied to your machine's estop chain. I think so too, but I can also agree with Marius that you wouldn't expect a machine that can't run Auto (yet) to set mode.is-auto. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
