Tempest Trajectory Planner / Re: Tempest Planning - Preliminary information and testing

Hi Art,
this looks like an interesting project - you never could resist a challenge !

anyway, I tried it on my router;
first thing I did to check everything was still operational was to jog the x and z axes away from zero, then pressed GoTo Zero.
This caused squealing motors, but strangely the DROS showed X,Z at zero but the AAxis at approx 30, I tried it a couple more times with similar results, just different values of A....

regards,
Rab

It may have been a vb command but called from within a gcode file ?

This is in gcode.
I'm sure that I had this working a few years ago but can't remember the formating,
I'm currently using P1 to call subprograms (O1....M99) but these are getting very long.

What's the correct usage of FileIn ?

I'd like to use this instead of calling a subprogram if that's possible?

thanks,
Rab
