Added experimental support for G66 (modal macro call) and G67 (end modal macro call).
Made axis letter to axis/motor assignment for axes ABCUVW freely changeable at compile time.
Fix for some G65 arguments being incorrectly validated for normal use (sign, range).
Added repeat support to G65 macro call via the optional L parameter word.
Changed default setting for ABC-axes to rotary.
Changed defaults for jerk settings to 10x acceleration settings.
Disabled jerk for jog, probe and spindle synchronized motion.
Added _active_probe system parameter, returns -1 if no probe inputs available.
Minor bug fix, G5.1 and G33.1 motion commands were not coverted to the correct string equivalent in $G output.
Moved probe signal handling from drivers to the core, improved handling of probe disconnected signal.
NOTE: The changes above are quite large, please verify probe operation after installation.
Added $PORTS command for listing serial ports, later I will update all drivers to provide the optional information.
Potential fix for polar kinematics not handling axes > 3 correctly, needs testing. Ref. issue #820.
Added lightweight JSON serializer outputting directly to file.
Fix for event handler sometimes called too early. Ref. issue #818.
For developers: added optional device filing system that can redirect file read/write to serial streams.
Changed signature of limit check functions, grbl.travel_limits() et. al.
to include a pointer to the work envelope to use.
Updated spindle off handling to check for "at speed" on deceleration when spindle is "at speed" capable.
Moved inbuilt G65 macros to the core and added macro G65P5Q<n> for selecting probe.
Added probe id to real time report: |P:<n> will be reported on probe select when more than one probe is available.
Fix for WCO and Ov real time status report elements not beeing reported as they should in some circumstances.
Added setting $676 with flags to control soft reset actions. See the changelog for details.
Workaround for Microsoft C adding a non-standard reserved keyword...
Improved handling of stop realtime command (0x19) for faster motion halt without losing position.
Optimized RAM usage. Fixed regression related to losing current coordinate system and tool offset over a stop.
Added option to homing enable setting ($22) for per axis homing feedrates.
!! Backup and restore settings over an update is recommended since all settings will be reset to default. Any odometer data will also be lost.
Fixed incorrect handling of G65 call parameters, axis words had offsets added. Ref. issue #594.
Refactored handling of multiple spindles. There are still some limitations but should work better now. Disabled override delays for now, needs investigation. Ref. issue #598.
NOTE: Please report any erratic behaviour after installing this version since it is a rather major change.
Fix for unable to set $484 to 0, issue #466.
Added setting $673 for setting coolant on delay after feedhold. Available when safety door handling is not enabled.
Fixed obscure bug carried over from legacy Grbl related to this. Issue #467.
Enabled setting $394 for spindle on delay after feedhold. Available when safety door handling is not enabled.
Added definitions for up to four additional digital aux I/O ports.
Added real time report of selected spindle in multi spindle configurations. Reported on changes only.
Removed limits override input invert config, for safety reasons it is always active low.
Added HAL entry points for second RGB channel, renamed first from hal.rgb to hal.rgb0.
Added option to setting $22 to force use of limit switches for homing when homing inputs are available in the driver/board combo.
Improved handling of aux I/O pins when claimed for core functions.
Added flag to $9 for disabling laser mode capability for primary PWM spindle. Allows leaving laser mode enabled when a secondary PWM spindle is available and this is used to control a laser.
Added some generic setting definitions for stepper drivers, currently used by the motors plugin.
Implemented handling of single block, block delete and optional stop disable control signal events.
Added help for $S (single block), $B (block delete) and $O (optional stop disable) commands.
Added optional HAL entry point for outputting WRGB values to lights such as neopixels.
Improved $-commands registration to make it easier to add help text.
NOTE: this is a relatively large change and may have introduced bugs and/or unintended side-effects. Please report any issues!
Added setting $519 for binding spindle encoder to given spindle in multi spindle configurations.
Added machine readable spindle enumeration report, $SPINDLESH.
Increased default value for setting $398 (number of planner blocs) from 35 to 100 for faster laser engraving.
NOTE: the $398 setting value will not change on an upgrade!
NOTE: STM32F103 builds for the 128K flash variants does not have enough free RAM and will keep 35 as the default value.
Increased allowed number of decimal places from 3 to 5 for $10x stepper step/mm settings. Ref. ioSender issue 346.
Added setting $650 for filing system options. Ref. issue 397.
Currently the following bits are available (depending on the configuration):
0 - Auto mount SD card on startup (1).
1 - Do not add littlefs files when listing the root directory (2).
Added build option for lathe UVW mode.
When enabled UVW words can be used to command relative moves for XYZ without switching to relative mode with G91.
NOTE: This permanently sets lathe mode and disables the $32 mode setting.
There are signature changes to some spindle, ioports enumeration and VFS filing system mount functions.
Added events to allow plugin code to handle tool table data, possibly stored on a SD card.
New/modified core entry points for soft limit checking.
More delta robot tuning, added setting warning in $DELTA output if some settings are inconsistent such as steps/rad, acceleration etc.
Fix for issue #361, HOME status is not reported or reported late when auto reporting is enabled with setting $481.
Some drivers will now only disable hard limits (if enabled) for axes that are homing, this includes max/min limit switches.
HAL entry points and core handlers/events has been added and some have changed signatures in order to better support kinematics implementations.
More work on delta kinematics: new and changed settings, some improved functionality. Still in progress.
Added free memory to $I output when available, example: [FREE MEMORY:102K]
Changed reported position for failed probe to target. Parameters #5061 - #5069 returns position in coordinate system used when probing.
