I am assuming that when you say "g55 c45" that is a shorthand for "g10 L2 C45 / g55"? I am fairly sure that an axis word on the same line an a G55 is simply interpreted as a movement, and will be fast or slow dependent on whether G1 or G0 is active. I think the complication in your case is that you want to index explicitly in joint 5 not in World C to move from vane to vane, the G55 offset can only ever be in tool angle. I think that your vane-to-vane indexing will need to be an extra pin input into your kinematics routine. (or alternatively an offset component in the HAL between the position-command and the stepgen or pid. ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once.
