Re: Applying offsets when changing tools manually.
Yes, I use the drop-down control during setup when I typically use an edge-finder (my tool 1000) to set my zero reference. During the tool change process I measure the tool clamping error using a touch-block connected via an input bit signal. I use the last position and the clamping error remembered...

Re: Applying offsets when changing tools manually.
How about changing the behavior to issue the offset change after the return from the M6 all? This sequence change better fits the logic of timing to match the order of operations set in post-processors generating the gcode. Again, I really appreciate your close attention to issues and your prompt re...

Re: Applying offsets when changing tools manually.
Hello, I have just spent two days trying to figure out why my custom program to execute an M6 tool change was no longer working correctly and causing my tool to end up positioned at the wrong height, sometimes diving into the workpiece (once into my expensive vise!). I finally figured it out. It was...

Re: KFLOPS with Windows 11 - USB problem and more
Tom, Yes, for sure I will recommend or buy Kogna hardware set for my next project. It looks sweet! I got my system fully converted over to KMotion version 5.0.6 running on Windows 11. In addition to the USB problem I found I needed to make several other changes to get it running: 1) Change the Windo...

KFLOPS with Windows 11 - USB problem
I installed KMOTION on a new PC with Windows 11. At first I loaded version 434, but then upgraded to version 5.0.6. Both had the same issue when Windows refused to recognize the USB driver as being legitimate. To get it operating I had to over-ride one of the Windows security settings. It works fine...

Re: Edit Tool Table Issues M6
Tom, Wow! I am again amazed by your instant response! Do you happen to be an AI system we have not seen in the news yet? Yes, the M6 issue is a non-issue. I should have found it by searching better. Thank you, thank you! Regarding my question regarding a catalogue, yes I include several of your file...

Edit Tool Table Issues M6
I have encountered an issue when using the tool table edit screen, either when it is initiated from the Tool Setup Screen or initiated using the KmotionCNC screen "edit" control (IDC_EditToolFile) where it issues an "M6" upon saving changes. This causes unnecessary tool changes. In the past my tool ...

Re: Determining if axis has been enabled
Tom, Thank you so much. I will try that as soon as I can. So, I assume that the Enable value is the one within the CHAN structure defined in KMotionDef.h? That makes sense now that I am studying that structure for other useful status... I am amazed at the promptness of your reply to my question. I l...

Determining if axis has been enabled
I have a problem in KMotion which I hope has a simple answer but is driving me crazy. I have a need in a C program to determine if an axis is already enabled before proceeding. I see a console command "Enabled<N>" which works fine in the console, but I cannot find any C functions to do the same thin...
