G10 can also be used to change the tool table. But even for a coordinate system change, I think it is worth the trouble to bust the queue and ensure that the realtime and user-space states match. I doubt that there is much or any G-code out there that needs to blend through either type of G10 command. This doesn't matter so much now, but one penalty of the current setup is that there needs to be a complete copy of the tool table carried around between all the sections. (which are then re-synched on abort, I assume). If we want to remove tool-table size limits then that can't carry on. All that the TP and TC really need are the parameters of the currently active tool. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
