14. Coordinates System Setting Functions
14.10 Workpiece Coordinate System Setting and Offset
520
Detailed description
(1) The tool radius compensation amounts for the commanded axes will not be canceled even if
workpiece coordinate system is switched with any of the G54 through G59 or G54.1P1 through
G54.1P96 commands
(2) The G54 workpiece coordinate system is selected when the power is switched ON.
(3) Commands G54 through G59 and G54.1P1 through G54.1P96 are modal commands (group
12).
(4) The coordinate system will move with G92 in a workpiece coordinate system.
(5) The offset setting in a workpiece coordinate system denotes the distance from the zero point
of the basic machine coordinate system.
