nates
• X CORNER—defines the X corner coordinate on an XY plane with origin at the
center of the face.
• Y CORNER—defines the Y corner coordinate on an XY plane with origin at the
center of the face.
• X LENGTH—defines the X length coordinate on an XY plane with origin at the
center of the face.
• Y LENGTH—defines the Y length coordinate on an XY plane with origin at the
center of the face.
• CORNER RADIUS—defines the radius of all four corners of the frame.
• C POSITION—defines the angle to position the C axis for the first segment
of the contour. This field appears when the Linear Y Motion checkbox is
selected. This field is available with TMX MY and TMX MYS series machines.
• 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.
• Z START—defines the location where Plunge Feedrate begins. The feedrate is
set in the Plunge Feed field in the Process tab.
• Z BOTTOM—defines the bottom of the hole and the location where the
Plunge Feedrate ends.
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.
