Of course, the system also can be defined coordinate system by user, referencing
“8.7.4 Coordinate definition”.
10.3 G Code Explanation
The G code which this system supports for is shown as the table 10.2.
Table 10.2 Common G code table
G99 Parameter: X/U Y/V I J Part option parameter
G92 Parameter: X Y Reference point setting
G91 / G90
No parameter Left/right Kerf compensation
G40 No parameter Cancel Kerf compensation
G00 Parameter: X/U Y/V straight line rapid moving tool
G01 Parameter: X/U Y/V Straight line cutting
G02 Parameter: X/U Y/V I J Clockwise arc cutting
G03 Parameter: X/U Y/V I J Anticlockwise arc cutting
1. G92 Reference point setting
Format:
G92 【Xn】 【Yn】
Parameters meaning:
【Xn】【Yn】 expresses absolute coordinate of reference point to be set and is also
absolute coordinate of which machine tool goes back to. If no parameter after G92, the
default reference point coordinate is (0, 0). Generally, while machine tool is taking (0,0) as
reference point, this code can be ignored.
