Approach coded position from position number n
Starting from the actual position number, approach the coded position n
position locations before (+n) or back (–n)
Approach the position from position number n along the shortest path
(only for rotary axes)
Approach coded position from position number n in the positive
direction
(only for rotary axes)
Approach coded position from position number n in the negative
direction
(only for rotary axes)
Position number within the machine data table
Value range: 0, 1, ... (max. number of table locations - 1)
