Source code

Gambas source code for the CNCAD prototype.

The CNCAD source is written in Gambas and follows the same structure as the prototype: drawing tools, project data, machine control, hardware access, and documentation.

Main modules

Source code areas

Design

Workspace code for drawing points, editing geometry, preparing projects, and keeping the design data readable.

Driver

Manual movement, machine state, execution flow, and coordinate interpretation for the CNC router.

Hardware

Parallel port signals, sensor reading, motor outputs, and protection logic used by the electronics stage.
