is seat, plotter coordinate P1 (1000,2000) will become user coordinate (0,0) and plotter
coordinate P2(4000,2500) will become user coordinate (1,1). (The SC command differs
from the IP command in the parameter order.) Of course, a user coordinate can also be
set outside P1 and P2 as shown in Fig. 3-4. The coordinate values in plotting from here
on will he based on this user coordinate system.

If the SC and IP commands are executed in combination like this, the desired coordinate
can be set to the desired position. By setting values useful in plotting, the programming
load can be reduced

The plotting area set by the IW command is called the “ w indow” . A command to draw out­
side the window will not cause an error, but the segments lying outside the window will not
be drawn, The default value o f the window is the maximum plotting area.
When attempting to draw partially outside the window,
the dotted lines will not be drawn.
