I don't know the reason for both or the naming history.


Gentrivkins is intended as a kinematics that allows free mapping of joints to axes but declares kinematics_identity and so does not expose the complications of joint/world mode.

I _think_ it still allows homing in joint mode.

I've built JA9, configured with gentrivkins and everything is working perfectly! Gantry auto-squaring, obeyed soft limits and automatic teleop are exactly what I was after, thanks Todd, Dewey and Andy for your help with this. I expect the problem remains with gantrykins and non JA builds but I much prefer this setup.

Would you mind sharing your config? I need to set up a gantry with auto-squaring myself.

Does the author of the Joints branch have any sample configs?

LCNC is like the punishment of Tantalus. ;)

If you install the branch, then most of the configs work I believe.
