Controlling digital output as Z axis
Hello,
I had wait more than month answer from CS-Lab support team and now I am really stucked without solution. My customer needs machine working but I am still not yet get solution to use pneumatic cylinder as Z axis.
Has anyone any other solution than adding custom M command in every Z movement on and how to detect machine automatic Z lift on tangential mode corner if that is not written to G-code?
I have tried to read Z axis position in trajectory mode but because there is no Z axis configured, axis position looks standing always zero. Otherwise it were easy to determine if Z is going positive or negative and just drive output to true or false.
Or can I make virtual Z axis some how and drive it without homing to get positions to it?

Version 3.600 is still being tested and fixed. Unfortunately, there is no way to speed up the release of this version.

Currently there is no other solution than the custom M command.

You can create a real Z axis and use a macro to zero its position when starting gcode using a macro.
Then you can read its position but that will be too slow to make sense.
