Tool offset number
The tool offset enables the user to adapt various offsets without changing the traversing
program.
Programming:
N10 G90 G43 G01 X100.000 F4000.00 M1=10 M2=11 M3=13 D1
The tool offset number is defined by the address character D and a figure between 0 and 20.
The corresponding offset is selected by assigning D1 to D20. In connection with G43 (positive
tool length offset) and G44 (negative tool length offset), the direction of the tool offset is
defined.
The entry of D0 deselects the tool length offset.
2.3.9
Dwell time
The dwell time is defined by the address character X and the dwell time value.
Programming:
N10 G04 X1.000 M1=10 M2=11 M3=13
A traversing block with dwell time may only contain the G function 04, time and M-functions.

If a block with dwell time is defined as the last block in the traversing
program, an automatic returned to the beginning of the program takes
place after executing the dwell time block (continuous loop).
