Tom, Watching the green "thread running" indicators in KMotion pointed me in the correct direction to find the bug (which was mine). At first, it appeared that adjustsoftlimits would run in thread 7, then quit abruptly. The code would run fine if I downloaded it to any other thread. So I tested in i...

Yes, for testing this I'm only using my Lathe (which only uses two axes, labeled X and Y, against common nomenclature). I'm using AdjustSoftLimitsTest.c to adjust all four, even though they aren't all in use at the moment. My Jog Speed into the soft limit during testing (using my pendant) is pretty ...

Tom, I will try to 'port' my settings from my custom app to KMotionCNC when I have a chance. In the meantime, here is a 'debugging output' from my app of the controller's settings (inline). I think it includes everything you were requesting. If not, let me know and I will add more info. The soft lim...

Tom, Running 5.3.1. .5 is in inches units. Parked at 0.0, then begin jogging to the right, with a PosX for the X-Axis of .5" Sorry, I should have said, AdjustSoftLimitsTest.c is running in Thread 7. I don't have a GCodeConfigCNC.txt per se.....As this is my own vb.net application and not KMotionCNC,...

Tom, Took me a while to get back to this..... I implemented Soft Limits as you suggested, with the goal of coming to a controlled stop. As expected, when a Pos X is set of +.5 (allowing for counts) and I Jog right towards that value, the soft limit triggers a feedhold and slows the axis to a stop. A...

Loss of position wouldn’t be an issue in this case it’s a manual operation being controlled by a pendant, so the forever loop might be the way to go.

I’ll look at the thread you suggested as well, thank you.

Thank you!

What is a good method of having a programmable 'stop' on an axes? Would using a soft limit be best for this, or another method? I'd like it to honor manual jogging of axes, as well as my custom pendant/encoder wheel, which uses KFlop C Code to move an axes. I would prefer that it didn't decellerate,...

Is the maximum number of user C Programs threads on the Kogna the same as the KFlop (7) or does it allow more? Don't have a specific need, just wondering.

Is it possible to check the state of CheckIfThreadingInProgress() from a dotnet app/dotnet libraries?
Nothing critical, just looking to see the state if possible.
