    Re: built-in named parameters

    Does the Linux cnc website not detail named parameters?

    It does, but there are some not in the lists in Sections 3.4 & 3.5 of G Code Overview

    I've assumed that those additional parameters are specific to Path Pilot, but it could be that they are active in all versions of LinuxCNC, just not listed with the others. In any event, there are usable built-in named parameters that are not in the above-cited lists.

    Re: built-in named parameters

    I just did a fast sweep of the PathPilot codebase and the ONLY place I found "#<_spindle_rpm_min> " was inside of NGC programs. That would indicate that that Parameter was unique to LinuxCNC not PathPilot.

    Just a thought< (;-) TP

    I discovered #<_spindle_rpm_min> and #<_spindle_rpm_min> inside a .NGC program that appeared on my 770 after a PathPilot upgrade, but I don't know how that bears on whether those parameters are unique to PP or part of any LinuxCNC engine. For what it's worth, when I write gCode subroutines (for PathPilot, since I have no other LinuxCNC engine), I create them as .NGC programs.
