14 The Tool Compensation

Instruction G42 functions in the same manner as G41 with the difference that the compensation vector is computed in a direction opposite to G41:

A change-over from state G41 to G42 or vice versa is only feasible in a linear interpolation block. The previous values will be modal if - with the three-dimensional tool compensation set up - I and J and K are all omitted in an interpolation.

It is not feasible to set up the three-dimensional compensation and two-dimensional radius compensation simultaneously.
