Incremental Offset from G54

Hi guys,

is it possible to make an incremental Offset from G54?

Lets say i want to move G54 2mm in Z+ is there any code for that?

in other controls for example Heidenhain you say

u can read about it here on Page 235: >>CLICK ME<<

greetings nooob

Sort of. There isn't a specific incremental shift command. But you can achieve the same effect with the G10L2 command combined with the coordinated system parameter number for the axis you want to shift. such as this

This would shift your Z G54 2mm (if you were in G21 mode).

I am not sure if this would work but it might achieve the same effect
but I know the first example works see here for the parameter numbers for other axis and coordinate systems
linuxcnc.org/docs/2.6/html/gcode/overvie...umbered_parameters_a

I quick tested it and the second example and while it does change the value of the stored parameter, it doesn't update the DRO and my not work in a program by itself. but if it is followed with G10 L2 P1. The DRO updates to the new value stored int the parameters.

so it seems thatis equivalent to

Thanks for the fast answers

i will try it tomorrow on my machine.

Im wondering that no one is missing this feature expect me until now, are u guys using a different method?

i'll guess

#5221 is X-Axis
#5222 is Y-Axis
#5223 is Z-Axis

right?

Yes that is right.

I actually have a series of pyvcp buttons set up (laid out like a jog keypad) for incrementally jogging the G54 offsets on one machine.

+Z+Y+W
-X ? +X
-Z -Y -W

these are linked a bunch of halui commands of G10L2P1[#522n +?]

I'm guessing most people just use the tool touch off widget in axis.

It might be a worthwhile endeavor to try to use remap to make the G- code you need (perhaps a G10L2.1 for incremental adjustments)

i tested it, it works great!

thank u Todd and andy.

I think i will try to make me an pyvcp for this
