3.7.2Teaching Coordinate Data
When setting and using a coordinate system, it is necessary to teach coordinate data for giving the coordinate system.
(1) Coordinate data
Coordinate data are data for giving a new coordinate system by means of an original coordinate system.
Coordinate data are structured as follows.
(Coordinate data name) = X, Y, Z, C
Coordinate data name | : A name representing coordinate data with up to 10 characters |
| starting with an alphanumeric character. |
X, Y, Z | : X, Y, and Z axis values of the zero position of the new coordinate |
| system viewed from the original coordinate system (unit: mm). |
C | : Amount of rotation around axis Z between the new coordinate |
| system and the original coordinate system (unit: deg). |
The new coordinate system is that the original coordinate system is horizontally moved for axes X, Y, and Z and then the original coordinate system is rotated for C around the new axis Z.
(2) Teaching coordinate data
Like position data, coordinate data are taught to individual files. There are three teaching methods; ① numeric value input method, ②
teaching method.
The coordinate data are taught in the following manner.
