Measuring variant
Example 4:
Radial position,
Milling cutter, R ≠ 0,
Measuring without
reversal,
calculation of the length
in X
_MVAR=110001
_MA=2
Example 5:
Axial position,
Milling cutter, R ≠ 0,
measuring with reversal,
calculate radius
_MVAR=101101
_MA=2
In this case, L1 must be
known.
Example 6:
Radial position,
Milling cutter, R ≠ 0,
measuring with reversal,
calculation of the length
in Z
_MVAR=110101
_MA=1
In this case, R must be
known.
