01:35 PM mrec: does anyone know how jogging is implemented?
01:35 PM mrec: I think about working on adding support for jogging at a particular angle
01:36 PM mrec: the recalculation of the pendant signals shouldn't be a big deal, but I guess it's going the G0 way of movement (not synchronized) in the background
01:37 PM mrec: I have removed the compound on my lathe to make it a little bit more rigid, now I want to turn an object at 8° (ER20 Taper)
01:39 PM mrec: instead of reinstalling the compound it would be nice to be able to do that via software.
09:28 PM mrec: andypugh: do you know about jogging?
09:28 PM mrec: the xhc pendant is wired up with axis and is just submitting pulses to emc/motion/control.c
09:29 PM mrec: I'd like to be able to jog at a particular angle, especially in lathe mode
09:30 PM mrec: so I'm thinking about adding a module and offloading the X/Y calculation; on the other side it has to provide the coordinates to emc/motion/control.c (there's no way to access/set the value of teleop_tp.pos_cmd at the moment?)
09:31 PM mrec: (in lathe mode of course there's just XZ)
09:31 PM mrec: I'd like to change eg. X to angle and Z to the distance of the motion
11:03 PM cradek: using G1 is the usual way to do this! of course it can cut in any direction. if you don't want to write a program, you can use MDI. if you write it with G91 you can jog to the start point and re-run the MDI command.
