2) Point unit
Set the resolution ranging from starting position of main axis to ending position of main axis on each step data of CAM
block data setting. When CAM data is created, calculate the position of sub axis corresponding to the position of main
axis from the starting position of main axis by point unit. The smaller point unit is, the more no. of CAM data is, so you
may execute much smoother CAM operation. However, if point unit is small, no. of CAM data exceeds 2048, so there is
a chance that user can not create CAM data.

Note
When set CAM block data after point unit setting, “Ending position of main axis” must be set as positive multiple
number of point unit. For example, if the unit of main axis is “degree” and point unit is 10, “Ending position of main
axis” must be set as multiple number of 10 like 40, 90, 180, ···.
