Central angle CCA and arc radius R
The starting and end points on the contour can be connected with four
arcs of the same radius:
Smaller arc: CCA<180°
Enter the radius with a positive sign R>0
Larger arc: CCA>180°
Enter the radius with a negative sign R<0
The direction of rotation determines whether the arc is curving
outward (convex) or curving inward (concave):
Convex: Direction of rotation G02 (with radius compensation G41)
Concave: Direction of rotation G03 (with radius compensation G41)

The distance from the starting and end points of the arc
diameter cannot be greater than the diameter of the arc.
The maximum radius is 99.9999 m.
