Position display
The value range for the position display can be set to the modulo 360° representation, which
is frequently selected for rotary axes:

Feedrate
The programmed feedrate F corresponds to an angular velocity (degrees/min) in the case of
rotary axes.
If rotary axes and linear axes traverse a common path with
interpreted in the linear-axis unit of measurement (e.g., mm/min, inch/min).
The tangential velocity of the rotary axis refers to diameter D
In the case of unit diameter D=D
tangential velocity in mm/min (or inch/min) are numerically identical.
In general, the following applies for tangential velocity:
F = F
