The following process must be followed in order to change the configuration of the machine defined for GPP2:
The EX2 program requests re-configuration to take place.
In response, GPP2 invokes a new RECONFIG MACHINE block, as soon as it can.
Inside that block, the EX2 program redefines the machine configuration (For example, the head orientation or even the machine type). It also outputs the necessary G-code commands to cause these changes on the machine.
Following the block, GPP2 recalculates the next steps according to the new machine configuration.
Do not ever try to reconfigure a machine outside the RECONFIG MACHINE block. GPP2 employs extensive look-ahead techniques (where future points have been calculated based on the current configuration). After this special block, GPP2 re-calculates its look-ahead data to fit the new configuration.
