Activate B-axis in Porbe Basic

Hello, I have a machine with X, Y, Z, B, C. How do I change Probe Basic from A-axis to B-axis?

[DISPLAY]
GEOMETRY = xyzab
...

[KINS]
JOINTS = 5
KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=XYZAC
...

[TRAJ]
COORDINATES = XYZAC
...

If I change three "A"s to three "B," only the X, Y, and Z axes are displayed in Probe Basic. I also adjusted the range [AXIS_X] to [AXIS_C].
Can someone help me?

Thanks for the answer. Is there no way to operate my machine like this?
One option would be to swap the X and Y axes, but is there another option?

I think that the dro control box section will likely soon become a user tab module that can be setup per the users requirement and kept in the config folder. seems too many configurations to keep up with otherwise and really taxes the ui build having to keep so many dro's running and active.

I will take a look and see what would be required for that.

ok so i spent the morning and afternoon updating some things with dro display, it is completely modular now in probe basic in the test branch, it includes preconfigured dro displays for the following:

xyz
xyza
xyzab
xyzac
xyabc
user (predefined with xyzabc)

this should allow users to configure however they need to for a multitude of configurations.

it will be activated in the ini section with the addition of the following two lines:

USER_DROS_PATH = user_dro_display/
DRO_DISPLAY = xyzac 

(xyz, xyza, xyzab, xyzac, xyzbc, user) these will be the available options with "user" being editable and stored in the config folder same as usertabs/buttons etc.

it is completed but i need a tester to pull the "dro_display_dynamic_loading" branch and just verify all works on a diferent pc than mine before i send it live as an update.  it will require users to update their config if they want to run anything besides xyz which it will default to if no ini entry is used.

thoughts/help testing?

Thanks,

Chris

 

almost forgot about the job buttons, those are now also dynamically set to display the new options for xyzbc as well as the offsets page ui bits as can be seen in the image below.

just waiting on a tester and need to update the docs once everything tests out and I will push the update out to the apt develop version of PB for install and updating.
