Editing GCode on the fly

Hey Chris,

@cluksha

Maybe someone with more technically ability will someday crack it open and show us all how to make it work.

you mean changing feedrate on the fly? Someone with more technically ability is not the problem. What would be needed is that someone wants to do it, someone that has a reason to do this work. The creators of the Buildbotics Controller seem not to do it soon…

I would not wait for it on the Onefinity/Buildbotics Controller. It may be…

@Aiph5u

…so popular, this request (#894, #1014, #6972, #15007 , #19353 and now #19698)! And very understandable as so many CNC controllers support it.

Unfortunately the lack of this capability is inherited from upstream

@Aiph5u

The new Onefinity Elite Series with Masso G3 Touch Controller have this feature.

However changing spindle speed in the middle of a program is possible with some VFDs

@Aiph5u

For me, there is no reason to use the Onefinity Controller (or the Buildbotics Controller, from which it is a hardware and software fork ) because there is LinuxCNC and I know how to build PCs.

LinuxCNC is very evolved and powerful nowadays. It evolved from the NIST’s Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC) project (See EMC History)
