5.1.1 Select tool and machining plane
Before you can program a line or circle, you have to select the tool,
spindle, spindle speed and machining plane.
If you program a sequence of different straight or circular path
motions, the settings for the tool, spindle, spindle speed and
machining plane remain active until you change them again.
If you change the selected machining plane subsequently, the
coordinates of the programmed path motion are adjusted
automatically to the new machining plane. The originally programmed
coordinates remain unchanged only for a straight motion (right-angled,
not polar).
