Address parameters

Coordinates can be programmed absolutely or incrementally. If you
do not make any entry for X, Y, Z, XK, YK, C, the coordinates of the
block previously executed will be retained (modal).
The control calculates missing coordinates in the principal axes X, Y
or Z if you program ? (simplified geometry programming).
The machining functions G0, G1, G2, G3, G12 and G13 are modal.
This means that the control uses the previous G command if the
address parameters X, Y, Z, I or K in the following block have been
programmed without a G code. However, the address parameters
must have been programmed as absolute values.
The control supports the use of variables and mathematical
expressions as address parameters.
To edit address parameters:
Call the dialog box.
Place the cursor in the input field.
Enter or edit values
Use the additional input options provided by the
soft keys.
Simplified geometry programming:
Press the ? soft key
Press the ? soft key again to display further
options
Simplified geometry programming provides the following options:
?: The control calculates the value
?>: The control calculates the value. The control uses the higher
value with two solutions
?<: The control calculates the value. The control uses the lower
value with two solutions
