Feed hold
« on: October 29, 2025, 04:27:11 PM »
CNC machines all have a function called Feed Hold. You press Feed Hold while it is moving it decelerates to a stop, and you can manually start stop spindle coolant etc. Press start and the axis all accelerate to feed rate and program continues. Is there any way to do this while doing AXPOSTRAP?

The Suspend bit in the Axis structure does that.
