Center of arc
The center of arc can be specified in two methods -- designation of the distance
from the start point to the center of the a rc and designation of the radius of the arc.
S Specifying the distance from the start point to the center
Independent of the designated dimensioning mode (G90 or G91), the center of
an arc must be specified in incremental values referenced from the start point.
S Specifying the radius
When defining an arc, it is possible to specify the radius by using address R in-
stead of specifying the center of the arc by addresses I, J, or K. This is called
“circular interpolation with R designation” mode.
S For the circular arc with the central angle of 180 deg. or smaller, use an R value
of “R > 0”.
S For the circular arc with the central angle of 180 deg. or larger, use an R value
of “R < 0”.

Feedrate
In the circular interpolation mode, the feedrate can be specified in the same man-
ner as in the linear interpolation mode. Refer to 2.1.2 “Linear interpolation (G01)”.
