Here's one for you guys... I think it's petty cool. Fanuc and mits offer an option called manual skip. We use it on our machines for something called w setter and t setter. W setter let's you call up the work offset page, manually jog into your workpiece and depending on selected function, will capture a single point, 2 point center, 3 point center or angular skew. This is all done by contacting and retracting the probe from the workpiece with the mpg. T setter works the same way with setting tools. It's a really handy function for setting up jobs.
I know that lcnc has an alarm that pops up if you contact your probe in a manual move, but I'm wondering if there's a way to make manual skip a thing. Maybe a custom component or possibly a change in source code, if I knew, I'd be working on developing it by now... I'm trying, though. I'm just getting into creating object classes in c++ 🥴 Any ideas of how to implement such a thing? Basically just need a check box option to have g38.2 active in manual mode and know which direction is being moved (x y z). Phil T.
