Motion suspend or stop when the switch is on & TinyG communication programming

[wente...@gmail.com]

Hello everyone,

I am doing a project using TinyG V8. According to the project requirement, we will design a cabin as the work station, TinyG board and motors are put in this cabin. There is a door for this cabin, When we open the door, the switch is pressed on, the motors suspend working or can't work. When we close the door, the switch is released off, the motors resume working or ready to work. In this project, we use axis X, Z and A, only axis Y is free now. So could we use Y min or max switch as the door switch to control the motion? If we can do such, how can we do and what kind of operation we need do?

We think it is not convenient for Coolterm and Chillipeppr to send GCode file to TinyG during mass production. We need  just like a very simple window that only has one button, when this button is clicked, a set of motion is completed one time, if clicked again, the motion is done again. Can Coolterm and Chillipeppr do it? If they can't do it, I have to program to communicate with TinyG, what kind of tool and development environment you recommend?     

Thanks!!

Best regards

Bill
