Description
This effects movement in a straight line and at maximum speed from the current tool position to the specified coordinate point. When
incremental programming is used, the tool moves the specified movement distance. G00 ignores any set feed rate, and always effects
movement at maximum speed. When "RAPID OVERRIDE" has been set on the PNC-3200, however, operation is according to this
setting.
The destination's coordinates (or movement distances) are specified with addresses X, Y, and Z. It is not necessary to specify values for
every one of these addresses. As an example, if only the X axis is specified (e.g., G00X100), the tool moves only along the X axis, with
no movement on the Y or Z axes. This is also the case when only the Y axis, Z axis, X and Y axes, Y and Z axes, or Z and Y axes are
specified. When addresses X, Y, and Z are all specified, the tool moves along all three axes simultaneously.
G00 is also effective outside the block until a word of the same group is encountered. If X x Y y Z z is specified in the block after
specifying G00, with no G01, G02, or G03, linear movement to the specified point is effected.
If the tool path is blocked by the workpiece or another object during movement, it is necessary to take steps to prevent the tool from
striking the object, and one way to do this is to move each axis one at a time.
