What I normally do is find the start value. and subtract the end value, giving a total cut. Then I sometimes experiment calculating the increment, The actual loop ending test is if the last cut== the stop target. So its always a floating point, and it always stops exactly on target. That pair of floating point numbers is exactly what I want to save and restore.
Experimentally since my last post I've played in that memory range g52| g92 uses, and any modification including writing back the zero read, triggers a showstopper error message when machine motion is re-enabled. I am not yet in a condition to rehome the machine, as it does have volatable homes due to powering down everything when motion is disabled. I'm 3d printing a series of footprints for drilling guides while I build an electronics box big enough to hide both psu's and the 4 axis drivers.
