The idea is that the user has to press cycle start after entering the MDI command. 1. enter MDI and accept (clicking execute or pressing return) 2. press cycle start on the machine 3. run MDI command for normal programs I just add the wait-for-cycle-start GCode to the start of the program. For MDI commands it is more complicated it seems. Of course, I could handle everything in the UI. However, since this is a safety critical feature I think it would be better to implement this in HAL or as GCode command. > > Or am I misunderstanding the problem? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
