Computational resolution: Rotary axes
Machine data
General machine data: $MN_
MD10200 INT_INCR_PER_MM
MD10210 INT_INCR_PER_DEG
Recommended setting
The above components and settings that are responsible for the actual-value resolution, should
be selected so that the actual-value resolution is higher than the parameterized computational
resolution.
