OK, I see - you are expecting the var file to be written immediately but this is not a guaranteed behavior. It gets written at various times but not after every block. It is certainly written at shutdown so the coordinate systems are saved. Is it true that the machine motion is correct in all cases, including when setting an active coordinate system, and the system origins are saved when EMC exits and then restored on the next run of EMC? The var file is a way for the interpreter to save some values - it's not meant for "human consumption". If you need to interact with the var file directly, you can be sure of getting consistency by doing it when EMC is not running. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
