For the specific purpose of measured tool lengths, use G43.1 I- K- "dynamic tool compensation" instead of coordinate system offsets. http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.3/html/gcode_main.html#sub:G43,-G49:-Tool
In v2.4 the gcode will be incompatibly changed because tool length offsets can apply to all axes, not just X and Z or W. The new code is G43.1 X- Y- Z- ... and the old I- K- will be rejected as an error. http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.3/html/gcode_main.html#sub:G43,-G49:-Tool Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
