Change feedrate mid-movement
-
Hello,
Every so often I forget to set (or change back to) a fast (or at least faster-than-a-snail) feedrate and then proceed to command a decently long move... then I immediately facepalm. Is there a way to change the feedrate of a move while the move is being conducted?
Thx

@merlin246 I would be VERY surprised if once a move is on progress that any other GCODE relating to moves or extrusion is processed until the move is complete.

Normally, yes, a long running move cannot be interrupted, however, you can set a parameter to segment long moves, which breaks them into shorter smaller moves, allowing other commands to intercede.
See the S and T parameters of M669
