Re: TOOL CHANGER , EMC AND STG2

Thanks Jon
I'd say bingo if someone could explain a bit how these too many
source files are arranged in emc those access the input and output
ports at the lpt and the STG card. Specifically if someone could
explain me the calling tree of these various functions present in the
emc source archives.
I've seen tkio.tcl which seems to contains the wrapper functions for
tool change but!
bridgeporttool.cc is another source file which too contains some
fucntions for tool changer perhaps!

Best regards
