Note
In the G00 positioning mode, since the axes move at a rapid traverse rate set for
the individual axes independently, the tool paths are not always a straight line.
Therefore, positioning must be programmed carefully so that a cutting tool will not
interfere with a workpiece or fixture during positioning.
G0 Linear Mode
The G0 linear mode is valid if MD $MC_EXTERN_G0_LINEAR_MODE is set. In
this case, all programmed axes move in linear interpolation and reach their target
position at the same point of time.
