Subject: M30 force Fixture reset and insert M5
When a GCode program ends with an M30, it forces the current Fixture to be reset to G54 and it also inserts an M5. How can I turn these things off?

Hi Kevin,

That seems to be fairly standard designed behavior.  See convert_stop() in rs274ngc.cpp.

I suppose we could supply options.  Do you have suggestions?  Why is it a problem?  Shouldn't you set things at the beginning of a program anyways?

Or you could end with an m0 (which wouldn't re-wind though).

Regards
TK

Tom,

It makes it confusing for the user. It should be an option to turn them on if the user wants the offset to be set back to G54 and turn off by default (maybe put it in the Tool Setup menu). Even if the user select, let say Offset G56 or have G56 at the beginning of the program. It will revert back to G54. This makes using MDI very confusing as the user may think he's on G56 when it always default back to G54. Also sometime M5 are not used for Spindle off command and does not need or want to turn off at the end of M30.

Also M2 does not seem to perform like it should. It seem to work just like M30. It should not rewind the program, but just pause a program.

Thanks,
Kevin
