Added ADC/DAC resolution to $pinstate command, changed reported values to integer for ADC/DAC devices and float formatted for PWM devices.
Numeric settings can now be set via G65P1Q<n>S<value>, <n> is the setting number, <value> is the new value.
Changed alarm code for Modbus exceptions (communication errors) from 14 to 19.
Refactored MPG stream code to allow plugins to hook into MPG streams (via event handler).
Added _free memory system parameter, returns value in KBytes or -1 if not available from driver.
Changed basic stream data type from char to uint8_t, added HAL function and core API for releasing/closing UART streams.
Some minor bug fixes such as incorrect error code returned for unknown $-commands and temporary incorrect position reporting on in-flight G92 offset changes.
Added code guards in order to free some memory for STM32F103 variants with 128K flash.
Changed Stop (0x19) real-time command behaviour, active tool offset and coordinate system will now be kept. Ref. issue #610.
Fixes issues for programs containing extended M-codes using single meaning words (which they as a rule should not do).
Added core support for spindle encoder binding to spindles.
Added sorting of spindle report: enabled spindles are sorted first in order of spindle number, disabled by type then spindle id.
Changed realtime report to report spindle number instead of spindle id on changes in the |S: element.
The change is major and potentially dangerous, it may damage your probe, so please verify correct operation after installing.
Fix for STM32F4xx issue 161, Ethernet connection unresponsive if USB port not powered.
Enhanced ioPorts interface: New debounce option for input pins that are interrupt capable, currently only possible to enable via plugin code - later to be made available via a $-setting.
Added some wrapper functions for simpler plugin code++
Added simple task scheduler to the core, allows interrupt routines to dispatch jobs to the foreground process, delayed tasks and repeating tasks attached to the 1 ms system timer.
Some drivers and plugins now uses the scheduler for input pin debouncing, regular polling etc. The core uses it for stepper disabling and sleep monitoring.
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.
