Added setting $358 to enable experimental functionality for fast rotary 'rewind' to stored G28 position.
Return move should complete in half a rotation or less.
For developers: added option to redirect debug via driver provided function when DEBUGOUT is set to -1 in config.h. Ref. issue #545.
Added experimental support of LinuxCNC style subroutines.
Available for gcode run from local filesystem such as on a SD card or in littlefs.
Improved handling of G92 when G92 offset is changed while motion is ongoing. Ref. issue #241.
Fix for issue #521, crash when running G65 macro on ESP32.
"Hardened" stream switching code, likely fix for discussion #456.
Hide related settings when no spindle and/or coolant outputs are available. From PR #479.
Fixed typo related to Modbus direction signal. Ref. issue #478.
Fixed typo in handling of aux output port settings. Ref issue #476.
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.
Fixed incorrect reporting of feed rate modes in $G response.
Added some ioPorts call wrappers, full support for reconfiguring output auxillary pins for PWM output.
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.
Moved RGB API definitions to separate file and added some utilities for drivers and plugins. Fixed minor bug.
stream_open_instance(), signature change - added optional description string.
Allowed use of unused (by the core) axis words (ABCUVW) in M-code commands implemented by plugin code.
Added $PINSTATE command, for outputting auxillary pin states, modes and capabilities. Machine readable formatting.
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.
Now returns no data for alarm and error enums when firmware is compiled for 128K versions of the STM32F1xx MCU.
This frees up some flash space for plugins etc.
