13.10.2 HP-GL standard commands
AA (x,y,a{,ß}){;}
Arc Absolute
Draws an arc around the absolute coordinate (x,y) starting from
the current position with the arc angle a=[degrees]. It is drawn
clockwise where the arc angle a is negative, but otherwise it is
drawn anti-clockwise.
AR (x,y,a{,ß}){;}
Arc Relative
Draws an arc around the relative coordinate (x,y) starting from the
current position with the arc angle a=[degrees]. It is drawn
clockwise where the arc angle a is negative, but otherwise it is
drawn anti-clockwise.
Cl (r{,ß}){;}
Circle
Dws a complete circle with radius r around the current position.
Resolution ß is ignored as the maximum resolution is always used
when drawing.
EA (x,y){;}
Edge Rectangle Absolute
Draws a rectangle defined by two corner points diagonally
opposite each other. The first corner point is determined by the
current position and the second by the absolute coordinate (x,y).
ER (x,y){;}
Edge Rectangle Relative
Draws a rectangle defined by two corner points diagonally
opposite each other. The first corner point is determined by the
current position and the second by the relative coordinate (x,y).
IN {;}
Initialize
Returns the control unit to the its status after switching on. This
restores all default settings.
IW (x0,y0,x1,y1){;}
Input Window
Restricts the XY axis working area to a window with the corner
coordinates specified.
OH {;}
Output Hard Clip Limits
The control automatically determines its maximum travel range
within the limit switches and sends the coordinates thus
determined to the PC as an ASCII string in the form
("W Xmin,Ymin,Zmin,Xmax,Ymax,Zmax <cr>").
OS {;}
Output Status
The control unit sends its status cell to the PC in ASCII hex ("S
xxxx <cr>").
