Thanks for the advice! I started implementing this the other day and am running into follow errors when switching between modes using a hal pin. I found this thread on the LinuxCNC forums which discusses the same desired behavior and the same errors I'm encountering. It seems like they were able to resolve the issues, so I'll give what they tried a shot: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/10-advanced-configuration/31813-tcp-5-axis-kinematics?limitstart=0
