M-Series Operator’s Manual 4/9/15 7
F3 – Work Envelope Use the F3 – Work Envel key to specify the ‘+’ and ‘-‘work envelope locations (in
machine coordinates) used in conjunction with the G22 G code. The X, Y, Z and I, J, K parameters
specified in the G22 G code are stored here, so subsequent G22 codes do not need to specify the limits
unless they change.
Note: The work envelope will only work in programmed moves. You will still be able to jog outside the work
envelope.
Coordinate System Rotation (CSR)
Coordinate System Rotation saves you time when setting up your part. Rather than clamping your part and
indicating the edge of the material to square it with the machine axes, you can use CSR to automatically rotate the
coordinate system to the angle of the part or fixture that was probed. This allows you to compensate for different
orientations.
Simply clamp your part, and then probe two points along either the X or Y-axis of the material using the process
described below.
