Straight line in rapid traverse G00 or straight line
with feed rate F G01

The TNC moves the tool in a straight line from its current position

to the straight-line end point. The starting point is the end point of

the preceding block.

Press the L key to open a program block for a

linear movement
Press the left arrow key to switch to the input

range for G codes
Press the

G00 soft key if you want to enter a rapid

traverse motion
Coordinates of the end point of the straight line, if

necessary

Movement at rapid traverse

You can also use the

L key to create a straight line block for a rapid

traverse movement (

G00 block):

Press the L key to open a program block for a linear movement
Press the left arrow key to switch to the input range for G codes
Press the

G00 soft key if you want to enter a rapid traverse

motion

Example NC blocks

N80 G91 X+20 Y-15 *
N90 G90 X+60 G91 Y-10 *

Capture actual position

You can also generate a straight-line block (

G01 block) by using the

ACTUAL-POSITION-CAPTURE key:

In the Manual Operation mode, move the tool to the position

you want to capture
Switch the screen display to Programming and Editing
Select the program block after which you want to insert the L

block

Press the

ACTUAL-POSITION-CAPTURE key: The

TNC generates an L block with the actual position

coordinates.
