Hi!
I want to create button (pyvcp or hard external - no difference) to set the offset G54-G59 commands.
In ini file in {HALUI} section there are several strings:
MDI_COMMAND = G10L2P2X[$XVALUE]Z[$ZVALUE]
MDI_COMMAND = G10L2P3X[$XVALUE]Z[$ZVALUE]
where XVALUE and ZVALUE - actual X,Z coordinates.
How can I transfer the actual coordinates to halui.mdi-command-XX?
The operator set the tool near desired point and push "G54 button"
The offset of new coordinate system will enter in EMC.
Is it possible?
Or I need to change the halui.mdi-command-XX on the fly?
I know the actual X and Z coordinates (axis.N.motor-position-cmd).

I think you probably want G10 L20, rather than G10 L2
