Calculating a point in a circle
1. Activate the calculator when you are in an input screen.
2. Open the lower-level menu for contour elements selection.
3. Select the desired calculation function.
Press this softkey to define the direction of rotation of the circle.
4. Enter the circle center, the angle of the tangent and the circle radius in the following window:
5. Press this softkey to calculate the abscissa and ordinate values of the point.
The abscissa is the first axis, and the ordinate is the second axis of the plane. The abscissa value
is displayed in the input field from which the calculator function has been called, and the value of
the ordinate is displayed in the next input field. If the function is called from the part program editor,
the coordinates are saved with the axis names of the selected basic plane.
Example: Calculating the point of intersection between the circle sector ① and the straight line ② in plane G17.
Given: Radius : 10
Circle center point CC: Y=20 X=20
Connection angle for straight lines: 45°
