Optional Optional DEG Angle Prohibited CP
[Function] Set a division angle for the interpolation implemented by a CIR (move along circle) or ARC
(move along arc) command.
When CIR or ARC is executed, a circle will be divided by the angle set here to calculate the
passing points.
The angle is set in a range from 0 to 120 degrees.
If the angle is set to “0,” an appropriate division angle will be calculated automatically so
that the actuator will operate at the set speed (maximum 180 degrees).
The angle is set in degrees and may include up to one decimal place.
(Note) If a CIR or ARC command is executed without setting an angle with this command, the
default value registered in “All-axis parameter No. 30, Default division angle” will be used.
[Example] DEG 10 Set the division angle to 10 degrees.

(Output, flag)
Optional Optional BASE Axis
number
Prohibited CP
[Function] Sequentially count the axes, starting from the axis number specified in operand 1 as the
first axis.
A BASE command is effective with PRED, PRDQ, AXST, ARCH, PACH, PMVP and PMVL
commands as well as actuator control commands and zone commands. Take note that
zone areas are assigned to each actuator using parameters.
[Example 1] BASE 5 The fifth axis is considered axis 1.
HOME 1 Axis 5 executes home return.
HOME 10 Axis 6 executes home return.
[Example 2] LET 1 5 Assign 5 to variable 1.
BASE *1 The content of variable 1 (axis 5) is considered axis 1.
Hereafter, axes 5 and 6 will operate based on specification of axes 1 and 2.
