Man were you right about reading through the example configs. I was trying to get manual tool change with auto tool probe working. Then I found you can just call M6 from inside the remapped M6 and do a probe after. You've done the lord's work here

Hey thanks for these great videos, non of this stuff was obvious to me either. I've had Linuxcnc for years and never really found much info on how to do anything, I had no idea there were built in examples😆👍

Thanks Erik!! This may be the info I needed to get my toolchanger rolling. I have a machine with PPMC on it also. I always struggled with how to get the physical pins to the virtual pins. My tool changer is somewhat similar to yours. The O code flow path is very close. I am going to work on it some this weekend.

What an extremely helpful and concise video. Much appreciated. Btw rs274 is the standard name of 'g code' although most implementations have some sort of differences. 'O' generally denotes the starting character of a program with the following characters being the program number. '#' denotes a macro variable with the following number being the address. Now to take what I've learned here and try it with a lathe turret.

Could you do a spindle orient quick video? Like the Hal pin connections for pid spindle control. This is a great video Thank you

thanks Eric much appreciated - linux is great but its almost deliberate that very little is "explained" in context for the hobbyists, what the agenda is behind it is anybodies guess, you have done great for us dumbos

@Johan Emerson thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

Just a quick (dumb?) question to help me understand: why remap the m6 command? Wouldn't it be possible to get the needed signals from component iocontrol's pins: tool-change, tool-number, tool-prepared, etc?

I've been curious about that as well
