Overrides

Override interface

Override interface allow to speed-up or slow-down the effective engraving speed (as well laser power) in real time during engraving process.

Speed overrides is a new feature of grbl v1.1, so it not available in older grbl version. This feature was implemented in grbl in a tricky commands interface:

 

0x90 : Set 100% of programmed rate.
0x91 : Increase 10%
0x92 : Decrease 10%
0x93 : Increase 1%
0x94 : Decrease 1%

LaserGRBL try to made it simple, like setting value in a slider control. A background worker thread send the right number of increase/decrease commands to reach settled target.

Note: this feature works only if you have not modified overrides section of your grbl config.h file.
