Because it is complicated with a non-trivial machine. I think that there are controllers that don't even try, and simply require all jogs to be joint-mode. The specific case I am talking about is where a jog is altering the approach angle of the tool to the work (A and B axes) while not altering the tool-tip position in XYZ space. To do this requires movement of the X, Y and Z Joints, but there is no change in the XYZ coordinates. I have a feeling that I have looked at this before and that it all works fine for incremental and jogwheel jogs. I will check that point tonight. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
