Actual value window

The actual values of the axes and their positions are displayed.
WCS/MCS
The displayed coordinates are based on either the machine coordinate system or the
workpiece coordinate system. The machine coordinate system (MCS), in contrast to the
workpiece coordinate system (WCS), does not take any work offsets into consideration.
You can use the "MCS actual values" softkey to toggle between the machine coordinate
system and the workpiece coordinate system.
The actual value display of the positions can also refer to the SZS coordinate system
(settable zero system). However the positions are still output in the WCS.
