Hi Michael,
you are right about the "let's special-case this approach" the remapping of the
M and G codes would be so much better as this way anybody can build his special
tool-change routines. For the moment, you are right, I have a urgent need for
the implementation of this type of toolchanger since one of my customers
urgently needs a upgrade for his router with a rack type ATC.
at this point everything is allready hard-coded right and working so I can
install the toolchangespindle and the rack atc on the customers machine.
I really hope the remapping of M ang G codes will be included into one of the
next releases.
Alex

Alex -
I am working on a related issue, which is a generalized approach to remapping
codes
the status:
- any free M-or G-code plus M6,Tx,M61 may be remapped to a gcode routine, or an
embedded Python plugin code
- the core remapping works nicely and passes an extra 20 or so regression tests
- an earlier snapshot drives the toolchange of a real machine which has a rack
TC: http://innovac.de/kartei.php?code=3741
- the core parts have beginnings of documentation
- UI's are "almost unaffected"
- the changes to interpreter and task are substantial - it has some 400 commits
since I forked
- iocontrol is gone and replaced by task-time Python plugin calls - which
includes HAL for toolchanger pins
- I am in the process of curbing my ambitions, and picking and polishing the
stuff which will go into a preview branch, and hope to have something with
acceptable embarassement to myself later this summer
- I would assume this will stay a separate branch until it has seen sufficient
review
My suggestion would be to stay with your component as a branch, and hold out a
month or two
Personally I do not encourage going farther down the road with the existing
hard-coded toolchange process approach except if pressed by an urgent need (and
paying customer ;-), which is why I dont work on the iocontrol-V2 component any
longer, and wont push this for v2.5; it works but it's just more of the same
"let's special-case this" approach
