Effect
M120 must be located in an NC block that also contains radius
compensation RL or RR. M120 is then effective from this block until
radius compensation is canceled with R0, or
M120 LA0 is programmed, or
M120 is programmed without LA, or
another program is called with PGM CALL, or
M120 becomes effective at the start of block.
Limitations
After an external or internal stop, you can only re-enter the contour
with the function RESTORE POS. AT N.
When using the path functions RND and CHF, the blocks before and
after them must contain only coordinates in the working plane.
If you want to approach the contour on a tangential path, you must
use the function APPR LCT. The block with APPR LCT must contain
only coordinates of the working plane.
If you want to depart the contour on a tangential path, use the
function DEP LCT. The block with DEP LCT must contain only
coordinates of the working plane.
