Important: Your system installer determines the relationship of the

machine coordinate systems between processes (relative location of zero

points and direction of positive travel) in AMP and through hardware.

This manual assumes the machine coordinate systems of both processes are

as shown in Figure 30.11. Refer to your system installer’s documentation

for details on how your machine coordinate systems are configured.
