Programming a circle with known center point
The tool travels along a circular path from its actual position to the programmed circle end
point. You must know the position of the circle center point. The control calculates the radius
of the circle/arc on the basis of your interpolation parameter settings.
The circle can only be traversed at machining feedrate. You must program a tool before the
circle can be traversed.
