Hi,
isn't that exactly what you want? If you hit the 'offline' button the motors stop but the DROs keep moving. That, by definition means that the DROs
no longer reflect the actual position of the machine. So long as the machine co-ords are reset to those that applied when you go back 'online' you have
no need to re-reference.
Those servo drivers have an enable input as does the spindle. You need to use it. Whether you chose to have three seperate enable signals or just
one hooked to all three drivers is up to you.
