Hello Tom,

I am using 5 axis defined in kmotionCNC, x,y,z,a,and b.

X,y and z are linear a and b are angular in degrees

How can I keep the same values of a and b in kmotioncnc when switching between mm and inch

I will be using the machine in mm mode and inch mode, but in both cases i need a and b to be in degrees.

Right now in mm mode if I place the values in degrees the values are correct. When switching to inch I need to divide these values by 25.4 to keep everything correct. Is there a way to just keep them in degrees.

Thanks,

Jad

Hello again,

Does anyone have any idea how to solve the issue?

Hi Jad,

Sorry for the delay. We are adding that feature and should have a new Test Version soon.
