Which is 834372 clocks, and this then includes the 200hz jog-thread? So its got to be running at full speed to meet its 1 millisecond schedule reliably. I don't think I have a lot more to add, home switches are about it. Noise filters to be made for that I expect. Andy's gearchange stuff is in there as far as addf's go, just not activated yet. Some xml stuff to hook it up is next, but until I can actually turn the spindle again, I've not worked on "hooking it up" to the pyvcp leds yet. Thanks Peter.
