What behavior should I expect with the M6 manual tool change routine? I need
to be able to jog the z-axis up and down to swap the bit, then re-zero that
axis before continuing. From what I can tell, it only just pauses the
program but will not allow me to jog or zero.
I am not near my machine at
Hm, this thread seems to be stuck a little bit. I am new here and I even
don't use EMC until now. But a conference would be great for us to learn
for our future projects. So please do it. :-) I know, contribution is
the essence of the OpenSource world so what I could offer to support it
is a
Great Kai, all ideas are welcome in a brainstorm!
I'm a little bit surprised though that my question died out so quickly. I
thought I would get more input.

M6 with manual tool change will pause the program and stop the spindle to allow
you to change tools. If you don't have presetable tools and your not set up to
probe
the tool length then the best plan is to split up your g code for each tool
needed.

Thanks Ray.
I tried this, but at first it didn't work (the monitor wouldn't sync).
Adding a line to specify the mode as 1280x1024 was the final touch.
Thanks again (and to SWPadnos who suggested the same thing with less
detail on IRC).

Sound good, Jon.
Some other things I've noticed in my (still ongoing) conversion to EMC2.
1 -- The Integrator manual pages have the wrong names for some of the pins.
2 -- It would be nice if the univpwm_io.hal file had the inverted sense
for the limit and home switches. As far as I can tell,

Which pin names? Yes, there probably are some things that have

Thanks for the answer, but what can we do about this? I would say that 95%
of the EMC2 user base (especially the newer silent ones) are using off the
shelf routers for thier spindles and do not have presetable tool options.
How hard would it be to make it function like I described?
I could
