1.3.3 Basic coordinate system
The basic coordinate system is a Cartesian coordinate system, which is mirrored by
kinematic transformation (for example, 5-axis transformation or by using Transmit with
peripheral surfaces) onto the machine coordinate system.

If there is no kinematic transformation, the basic coordinate system differs from the machine
coordinate system only in terms of the axis designations.
The activation of a transformation can produce deviations in the parallel orientation of the
axes. The coordinate system does not have to be at a right angle.
