Axis Motion
Chapter 14
14-20
The control only cancels the mirror feature for those axes that are
programmed in the G50.1 block. Axes not programmed in the G50.1 block
remain mirrored. There is no significance to the values programmed with
the axis words in a G50.1 block. Axis values might not be required,
depending on how the way AMP was configured by your system installer.
In either case, the control ignores these values.
