5 Programming Tool Movements
5.3 Path Functions
Movement of three machine axes (3D movement)
The tool moves in a straight line to the programmed position.
Number of axes programmed in the NC block: 3
Exception: A helical path is created by combining a circular movement in
a plane with a linear movement perpendicular to the plane.

The path function keys (soft keys) determine the type of contour element
and initiate the plain language dialog.
