.SH DESCRIPTION
By default, the base thread does not support floating point. Software stepping, software encoder counting, and software pwm do not use floating point. \fBbase_thread_fp\fR can be used to enable floating point in the base thread (for example for brushless DC motor control).

The \fBnum_joints\fR parameter is conventionally set using the INI file
setting \fB[KINS]JOINTS=\fRvalue. The \fBnum_extrajoints\fR is set by
the additional motmod parameter \fB[EMCMOT]motmod num_extrajoints=\fRvalue.

HAL pin numbering for all joints is zero based [\fB0 ... num_joints-1\fR].
When specified, 'extra' joints are assigned the last \fBnum_extrajoints\fR
