Will M266 be supported sometime ? #1017

Closed Ams-Laser closed 10 months ago

Ams-Laser commented 10 months ago

Machine Context

Building Embroidery machine that needs M266 to wait for needle up sensor before next move

Feature Description

the m266 wait for input trigger will permit the next move to happen only when the needle is out of the fabric

Other Approaches

im currently using a joystick hack to trigger next move on sender, supporting the M266 code will make more easy to implement and further develop embroidery mode

How I Can Help

i can donate, and help test

Hi @Ams-Laser,

I suspect that you mean the Marlin-specific gcode described here: https://marlinfw.org/docs/gcode/M226.html

In that case I think the answer is "no" (http://wiki.fluidnc.com/en/features/supported_gcodes):

Our GCode is strongly based on LinuxCNC (G and M codes). If you are thinking about suggesting a new command, look to see what LinuxCNC does. Saying "...like Marlin" will get you nowhere.

The M66 command described at LinuxCNC sounds like it would suit you needs: https://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gcode/m-code.html#mcode:m66.

However it is also requested here https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC/issues/586

I think that we can close this as a duplicate.
