5.4 Path Contours – Cartesian Coordinates
Straight line L
To program a straight line you enter:
• The coordinates of the end point
E
• If necessary, radius compensation, feed rate, miscellaneous function
The tool moves in a straight line from its current (starting) position to the
end point
E
. The starting position
S
was programmed in the previous
block.
To program a straight line
COORDINATES ?
Identify coordinates as relative, for example IX=50 mm.
Select the axis (orange axis-selection key), for example X.
Enter the coordinates of the end point.
If a coordinate is negative, press the -/+ key once, for example
IX=–50 mm.
Enter all further coordinates of the end point.
After entering all coordinates, close the dialog with the ENT key.
