cmorley OFFLINE Moderator Posts: 1495 Thank you received: 40 Karma: 89	You would have to change it. Just off after a quick read through... I see g32 which linuxcnc uses g33 also the tool calls/offsets are done 'lathe style' (the offset is set with the tool - T404) Linuxcnc does it differently g43 sets the offset the T code preselects the tool and M6 does the tool change - something like that.

Indeed, it is mill code, as LinuxCNC is a general-purpose machine tool (and robot) controller. I think it was decided that that was a more flexible system.
However, as that link showed, someone has already modified LinuxCNC to accept the alternative format. You could (in theory) patch your version of LinuxCNC with those changes, or hope that they get accepted into the production version and wait.

You could also write a filter that converts your G-code before running it, that is fairly easy to configure.

Modifying the post processor is probably the easiest way, though.

I will mention that you would prefer the other style, though.

jrkeat OFFLINE Junior Boarder Posts: 21 Karma: 0	On my PCTurn55, one of my limit switches in normally closed (NC) and the other is normally open. The normally open one seems wierd, and I can get it to be NC just by changing the leads going into the switch. Do others have one normally open switch, or are they both NC?
