- Updated new homing cycle to error out when a pull-off motion detects
the limit is still active.
- Created a limits_get_state() function to centralize it. It reports
state as a bit-wise booleans according to axis numbering.
- Updated the print uint8 functions. Generalized it to allow both base2
and base10 printouts, while allowing base2 prints with N_AXIS digits
for limit state status reports. Doing this saved about 100bytes of
flash as well.
- Applied CoreXY status reporting bug fix by @phd0. Thanks!
- Commit history added to repo, as an easier way for people to see view
the changes over time.
- Grbl logo copyright license added. All rights reserved with regards
to the Grbl logo.
- G2/3 full circles would sometime not execute. The problem was due to
numerical round-off of a trig calculation. Added a machine epsilon
define to help detect and correct for this problem. Tested and should
not effect general operation of arcs.
- Homing cycle failure reports alarm feedback when the homing cycle is
exited via a reset, interrupted by a safety door switch, or does not
find the limit switch.
- Homing cycle bug fix when not finding the limit switch. It would just
idle before, but now will exit with an alarm.
- Licensing update. Corrected licensing according to lawyer
recommendations. Removed references to other Grbl versions.
- Overhauled the state machine and cleaned up its overall operation.
This involved creating a new ‘suspend’ state for what all external
commands, except real-time commands, are ignored. All hold type states
enter this suspend state.
- Removed ‘auto cycle start’ setting from Grbl. This was not used by
users in its intended way and is somewhat redundant, as GUI manage the
cycle start by streaming. It also muddled up how Grbl should interpret
how and when to execute a g-code block. Removing it made everything
much much simpler.
- Fixed a program pause bug when used with other buffer_sync commands.
- New safety door feature for OEMs. Immediately forces a feed hold and
then de-energizes the machine. Resuming is blocked until the door is
closed. When it is, it re-energizes the system and then resumes on the
normal toolpath.
- Safety door input pin is optional and uses the feed hold pin on A1.
Enabled by config.h define.
- Spindle and coolant re-energizing upon a safety door resume has a
programmable delay time to allow for complete spin up to rpm and
turning on the coolant before resuming motion.
- Safety door-style feed holds can be used instead of regular feed hold
(doesn’t de-energize the machine) with a ‘@‘ character. If the safety
door input pin is not enabled, the system can be resumed at any time.
- Re-organized source code files into a ‘grbl’ directory to lessen one
step in compiling Grbl through the Arduino IDE.
- Added an ‘examples’ directory with an upload .INO sketch to further
simplify compiling and uploading Grbl via the Arduino IDE.
- Updated the Makefile with regard to the source code no longer being
in the root directory. All files generated by compiling is placed in a
separate ‘build’ directory to keep things tidy. The makefile should
operate in the same way as it did before.
