Working on the toolchanger script. We need ability to orient the spindle correctly. Supposedly this Orient component is suppose to do that..
http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man9/orient.9.html However, I find little to no examples of it being used in practice. The SIM for it is less than helpful. The manual leaves out key parts needed such as a addf for the orient component itself. I managed to get some of it working, but the spindle won't move on the M19 command. (I can see it set the command position correctly) Andy Pugh just mentioned something about needing a mux2 to switch the spindle from velocity command to pid command, and that's the main thing missing from the docs.
