Hi all-
I've been working on getting the live tool system working on my lathe
and am curious if it is at all possible (for me) to add interpretation
of M53/M54/M55 to EMCTask, to activate "new" pins
{motion.livespindle-forward, motion.livespindle-reverse,
motion.livespindle.on} - which are equivalent to M3/M4/M5, but assigned
to the "live" spindle motor. Spindle speed would be handled with the
existing pins.
I realize I can do this in the M100-M199 range, (which is what I'm doing
with it right now) - however I'm hoping to retain some form of
"traditional" Fanuc/Mori functionality.
The real question is, can any non-implemented (m) code be parsed by an
external rogram - just like the process of M100-199, or does it have to
happen within a "modified" version of EMCTask? (ie, would my changes
have to be redone if a new and lucrative release comes out?)
Since one already gets a "unknown m code used" fault if M100 is called
without an associated program, could EMCTask check for the existence of
M53 (and thus any non-implemented code) in the PROGRAM_PREFIX directory
as well by default?
Thanks,
Ted.
