motion.feed-upm not as documented #1438
Comments
I wonder if anyone is depending on the current behaviour? |
Knowing my luck there would be. :) |
Maybe the answer is to create yet another pin, motion.feed_mupm ? (or something else, of your choice) |
Pins are very cheap in LinuxCNC. I suggest creating two new pins, This provides full backwards compatibiliy and maximum flexibility for people who want to know the feed in either of the standard units. |
Because pins are cheap, I think the units should be per second in line with all of the other velocities reported.

How about four new pins:
We should probably keep |
The motion man page states that motion.feed_upm is in machine units per minute.
The actual reported value is G-Code file units per minute. e.g. a metric machine running a G20 file, feed-upm reports inches per minute rather than mm per minute.
I can change the documents if necessary but I am reporting this in the hope that the documentation is correct and the reported value can be changed.
