I have DROs for commanded feedrate, FRO and actual feedrate, and for commanded spindle RPM, SSO, and actual RPM. Worst case, I can track those myself, by passing data back from the DSP. I seem to have slain the bug that was causing the KMotion crashes on exit, though I'm not sure what I did to fix it.... I did find an init problem that might explain it. Lots of error handling to put in yet. And I need to hook in an E-Stop coming FROM the machine, in addtion to the ones in the pendant, and the on-screen one.
