Work zones
3.7 Work zones
The CNC provides four work zones or areas, and also limits the tool movement in each of these.
3.7.1 Definition of the work zones
Within each work zone, the CNC allows you to limit the movement of the tool on each axis, with upper
and lower limits being defined in each axis.
G20: Defines the lower limits in the desired zone.
G21: Defines the upper limits in the desired zone.
The format to program these functions is:
G20 K X...C±5.5
G21 K X...C±5.5
Where:
K Indicates the work zone you wish to define (1, 2, 3 or 4).
X...C Indicates the coordinates (upper or lower) with which you wish to limit the axes.
These coordinates will be programmed with reference to machine zero (home).
For safety, the axis stops 0.1mm before the programmed limit.
It is not necessary to program all the axes, so only defined axes will be limited.

G21 K1 X100 Y50
