Coordinate programming
3.5.1 Cartesian coordinates
The Cartesian Coordinate System is defined by two axes on the plane, and by three or more axes
in space.
The origin of all these, which in the case of the axes X Y Z coincides with the point of intersection,
is called Cartesian Origin or Zero Point of the Coordinate System.
The position of the different points of the machine is expressed in terms of the coordinates of the
axes, with two, three, four, or five coordinates.
The coordinates of the axes are programmed via the letter of the axis (X, Y, Z, U, V, W, A, B, C, always
in this order) followed by the coordinate value.
The values of the coordinates are absolute or incremental, depending on whether it is working in
G90 or G91, and its programming format is ±5.5.
