So I can use 00 for independent vars.

Ok, but what about the docs saying its waiting for input, which I'd normally assume will be zero before the first peck, aka no data=0.0000000 until the measurement arrives shortly after the bottom of the pecks turnaround? And is held valid until the next peck updates it. > That is all there is to it. Ok, I should be able to get this part working in the morning. But I just thought of another roadblock, units.py, I need its output to make things imperial that started imperial. units.py is apparently called from the system as it is not in a loadrt or addf statement anywhere. It used like this in postgui.hal net display-mode <= units.G21 => ovrtrvl-scaler-mux.sel However, a bit of conditional gcode in the ngc file can make a substitute for that I think. I was amazed that there is no units loadable module when I started this project over a year ago. Good night & stay safe.
