Word structure and address 
Functionality/structure  
A word is a block element and mainly constitutes a control command. The word consists of the following two parts: 
● 
: generally a letter 
● 
: a sequence of digits which with certain addresses can be added by a sign put in front of the address, 
and a decimal point. 
A positive sign (+) can be omitted. 
The following picture shows an example of the word structure.  
 
Several address characters 
A word can also contain several address letters. In this case, however, the numerical value must be assigned via the 
intermediate character "
". 
Example: 
 
Additionally, it is also possible to call G functions using a symbolic name (For more information, refer to Section "List of 
instructions (Page 258)".). 
Example: 
 ; Enable scaling factor 
With the following addresses, the address is extended by 1 to 4 digits to obtain a higher number of addresses. In this case, 
the value must be assigned using an equality sign "=". 
R  Arithmetic parameters 
H  H function 
I, J, K  Interpolation parameters/intermediate point 
M  Special function M, affecting the spindle with other options 
S  Spindle speed  
Examples: 
R10=6.234 H5=12.1 I1=32.67 M2=5 S1=400
