Detailed description
(1) This command is issued independently immediately before the block with the movement

(2) Single block stop does not apply to this command.
(3) The maximum number of groups to which the miscellaneous functions in the G117 block can
be issued is as follows:
M commands

T commands
2nd miscellaneous function : 1 set
(4) This command can be issued in up to two consecutive blocks.
When issued in three or more consecutive blocks, the last two blocks will be valid.
(Example) G117 Xx1 Zz1 Mm1 Mm2 Mm3 Mm4;
(5) When the operating start point commanded by G117 is not on the movement path, the
miscellaneous function will be output once the movement has reached all the coordinate
values of the operating start point. In addition, only the commanded axis is checked.
(Example) G117 X100. M××;
(Note) The other axes are not subject to the check.
(6) The completion of the miscellaneous function in the previous group is checked at the operating
start point, and the miscellaneous function of the next group is output. Thus, normal PLC
interfacing is possible.
