TCP 5-axis kinematics

Thank you,

so i copied and overwrote all the files in the master-branch folder (made a copy before) but linuxcnc said unknown gcode so i fumbled a bit around and then i tried the sim config. The sim config starts correct, knows the G12.1 command and doesnt give me the error i get with my config. that must mean my config is "broken". afaik in Linuxcnc 2.8 and above joints are no longer hardcoded to the axis which means i can for example have axis a using joint 5 right? atm my joint axis is like this:

ini:
x = j0
y = j1
z = j2
a = j3
c = j4
b = j5

hal:
x = j0
y = j1
z = j2
a = j3
c = j4

is this correct?

i noticed that when i jog my c axis in trivkins there is no position change but the velocity shows something. only when i activate tcp i see a value in the c axis

so i copied and overwrote all the files in the
master-branch folder

In case you missed it, the XYZAC type switchkins
kinematics module (as updated by plopes9000) has been
incorporated into the experimental branch dgarr/s_kins.
The branch uses remapped mcodes (M428,M429) for
switching kinematics instead of gcodes (G12.*)

The branch can be built as a rip from source with
no additional patching or installed as a deb
available from the buildbot.

The branch awaits 1) an offered patch for updating
XYZBC for defining its rotation point and 2) user
testing.

A bug fix for this error was committed to the master
branch yesterday:

Thank you,

you wont believe what solved (at least atm) my problem with G12.1 TCP.
In my ini file there was "KINEMATICS = switchKins coordinates=XYZAC"

i deleted "coordinates=XYZAC" and now i dont get the error anymore. Also i can see values changing when i jog the c axis in trivkins so i guess everything is working like it should.

Thank you all so much for helping!

This opens up so much more possibilities.

Glad to hear.

Did want to point out that the way forward to get TCP included in the master branch is to support dgarrett's new branch dgarr/s_kins.

thanks for the hint, i will try dgarr/s_kins someday in the near future.

To speed up robot, also avoid singularities, change robot config ... i want to control robot in joint mode (this mode really necessary).
I tried branch github.com/rushabhGH/linuxcnc/tree/switchKins for robot to switch kinematic recently , it's worked but there are some problems:
+ When we change kinematic, the trajectory planner will keep using axis limits, max velocity, max acceleration parameters for planning, if these numbers higher than correcsponding joint parameters it can caused "joint following error".
+ Because we just change kinematic, TP still uses old offsets ( G54, G90,G91,...).
I think dgarr/s_kins branch also has this problem so any idea to solve this problem?
Edit: Figured out to change max velocity and acceleration by edit source but didnt find out where and how axis limits are used in auto mode.
