Command for eliminating compensation vectors temporarily
When the following command is issued in the compensation mode, the offset vectors are
temporarily eliminated and a return is then made automatically to the compensation mode.
In this case, the compensation is not canceled, and the tool goes directly from the intersection point
vector to the point without vectors or, in other words, to the programmed command point. When a
return is made to the compensation mode, it goes directly to the intersection point.
