Why don't you just touch off?
Home to any old place.
Take a test cut at a programmed diameter of say 0.550".
That means the programmed X value is 0.2750. After
the cut, get the tool clear however you want, then move
it back to X=0.2750 (I usually just do an MDI command).

Greets all;
I am still in the process of 'calibrating' this thing, having whipped the
motor speeds into shape with a lincurve between the pid.out and the
pwmge.value in pins. Works nicely now.
And it only took another iteration to get the Z home position set about a

me too, but that wont be picked up by the linuxcnc config selector, which
defeats the purpose of doing an easily accessible dem

I was the one who started the BLOCS project at SF. As far as I'm
concerned

Typically, if I want a HAL only configuration, I write a .hal file
and then invoke it with "halrun -f myhalfile.hal"
I haven't thought about the implications of doing it as described
below.

I propose to change all code in linuxCNC requiring ini variables as follows:
- any code needing to access ini file variables is to investigate the
environment for the INI_FILE_NAME variable
- drop any use of '-ini' from programs
- if needed, run said programs with 'INI_FILE_NAME= command'
Rati
I propose to change linuxcnc (as in scripts/linuxcnc.in) as follows:
- If a '[TASK]TASK=' (no argument to TASK) clause is not given in the ini file,
do NOT start milltask.
- if a '[EMCIO]EMCIO=' (no argument to EMCIO) is not given in the ini file, do
NOT start io .
Rationale: defaults are usef

Unrelated to the main thread - if doing electronic gearing, I
suggest reading about the "encoder-rati
