Calculating a point in a plane
1. Activate the calculator when you are in any input screen.
2. Open the lower-level menu for contour elements selection.
3. Select the desired calculation function.
4. Enter the following coordinates or angles in the respective input fields:
● Coordinates of the given point (PP)
● Slope angle of the straight line (A1)
● Distance of the new point with reference to PP
● Slope angle of the connecting straight line (A2) with reference to A1
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 fi
eld. If the function is called from the part program editor,
the coordinates are saved with the axis names of the selected basic plane.
Calculating the Cartesian coordinates
1. Activate the calculator when you are in any input screen.
2. Open the lower-level menu for contour elements selection.
3. Select the desired calculation function.
This function converts the given polar coordinates into Cartesian coordinates.
4. Enter the reference point, the vector length and the slope angle in the respective input fields.
5. Press this softkey to calculate the Cartesian coordinates.
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.
