Programming with respect to machine zero (G53)
4.3 Programming with respect to machine zero (G53)
Function G53 can be added to any block that has path control functions.
It is only used when the programming of block coordinates relating to machine zero is required.
These coordinates should be expressed in millimeters or inches, depending on how the general
machine parameter "INCHES" is defined.
By programming G53 alone (without motion information) the current active zero offset is canceled
regardless of whether it was originated by a G54-G59 or a G92 preset. This origin preset is described
next.
Function G53 is not modal, so it should be programmed every time you wish to indicate the
coordinates referred to machine zero.
This function temporarily cancels radius and tool length compensation.
