Position display
As soon as a PLANE function is active, the TNC shows the
calculated spatial angle in the additional status display (see figure).
As a rule, the TNC internally always calculates with spatial angles,
independent of which PLANE function is active.
During tilting (MOVE or TURN mode) in the Distance-To-Go mode
(DIST), the TNC shows (in the rotary axis) the distance to go (or
calculated distance) to the final position of the rotary axis.
