nates
• X END—defines the X coordinate on a 2-D XY plane, starting from the center
of the face.
• Y END—defines the Y coordinate on a 2-D XY plane, starting from the center
of the face.
• X START—defines the X start point for the segment. This read-only field is
carried forward from the previous segment and can only be edited in that
screen.
• Y START—defines the Y start point for the segment. This read-only field is
carried forward from the previous segment and can only be edited in that
screen.
• LENGTH—identifies the length of the line.
• ANGLE—defines the angle of the line segment from the start point to the end
point, measured counterclockwise from the home position.
• FEED—contains the feed rate from the previous segment. This value can be
accepted or changed.
• LINEAR Y MOTION—select this checkbox to cause Y-Axis Motion using the X
and X’ axes. When this checkbox is clear, Y-Axis Motion occurs using the X
and C axes. Please refer to Programming Coordinates and Linear Y Motion, on
page 2 - 68 for examples. This field is available with TMX MY and TMX MYS
series machines.
Linear Y-Axis Motion is limited. The amount of Y travel is affected by
the X position and by any X-Axis tool length offset.
