Re: EMC Problem

Ian:

Sorry if I created any confusion. I didn't realize
that yemc is currently not released (actually I'm
still not sure if it's released or not). yemc is a
program that was written to give GUI support for the
hexapod work I'm doing and I don't know what the
future plans are for yemc or if it is even suitable
for release in its current state.

Also, as Fred mentioned, the trajectory planner
doesn't support orientation trajectories anyway. So
for conventional machines you currently won't get any
real benefit from using more than three axes since I
assume you want the extra axes to control orientation.
For Hexapods, however, you have to control all six
axes just to get xyz motion since the axes are
non-orthogonal. So the fact that I can't get control
of orientation isn't as big of a deal.

Probably should have mentioned that the first time.
Anyway, sorry again for the confusion.
