As soon as a PLANE function is active, the TNC shows the

calculated spatial angle in the additional status display (see figure).

As a rule, the TNC internally always calculates with spatial angles,

independent of which PLANE function is active.

During tilting (MOVE or TURN mode) in the Distance-To-Go mode

(DIST), the TNC shows (in the rotary axis) the distance to go (or

calculated distance) to the final position of the rotary axis.
