I was using (x,y) generically to describe how lincurve works. Imagine it as an (x,y) graph on a piece of paper. The X and Y have absolutely no relationship to your machine axes. The X points do not need to be equally spaced. if you have a step, then use two X values very close together. (identical is allowed, for a real step-function, but your Z axis would not be able to follow that). The input to Lincurve would be your (actual) X axis position, the output of the lincurve (inteprolated from the Lincurve "y" values) is added to the Z axis commanded position as a correction using the "offset" HAL function. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
