Shift of the Origin 

 

Specify, in a feature coordinate system, an amount of shift from 
the feature coordinate system origin specified for the 1st point 
(point P1). 

 

•

 

Rotation Angle about the Z-axis in F-Coordinate 

 

Specify an angle of rotation around the Z-axis of a feature 
coordinate system. The direction of rotation angle R is positive 
when a rotation is made clockwise as viewed in the Z-axis 
direction of the feature coordinate system. 

 

•

 

1st point (Origin of Feature Coordinate) 

 

Specify the origin (X, Y, and Z of point P1) of a feature 
coordinate system as coordinates in a workpiece coordinate 
system (for the absolute type) or the current feature coordinate 
system (for the incremental type). 

 

•

 2nd 

point 

 

Specify the coordinates (X, Y, and Z of point P2) of the 2nd 
point as coordinates in a workpiece coordinate system (for the 
absolute type) or the current feature coordinate system (for the 
incremental type). The 1st point and 2nd point determine the 
X-axis of the feature coordinate system. 

 

•

 3rd 

point 

 

Specify the coordinates (X, Y, and Z of point P3) of the 3rd point 
as coordinates in a workpiece coordinate system (for the absolute 
type) or the current feature coordinate system (for the 
incremental type). Among the directions normal to the X-axis, a 
direction with a smaller angle relative to the P1 

→

 P3 vector is 

the Y-axis of the feature coordinate system.

Screens of a 15-inch display unit 

 
This section describes the screens displayed by pressing function key 

. The screens include a program editing screen, program folder 

list display screen, and screens for displaying the command states of 
the program currently being executed. 
1. Program 

screen 

2.  Program folder screen 
3.  Next block display screen 
4.  Program check screen 
 
On the program screen, you edit the program that is currently selected, 
and display the block that is currently executed during program 
operation. In MDI mode, you also edit an MDI operation program, 
and display the block that is currently executed.

Editing a Program (15-inch Display Unit) 

 
A program can be edited in the EDIT mode. 
Two modes of editing are available. One mode is word editing, which 
performs word-by-word editing. The other is character editing, which 
performs character-by-character editing. 
For program creation and editing operation, see Chapter III-9, 
“CREATING PROGRAMS “ and Chapter III-10, “EDITING 
PROGRAMS”. 
 

Displaying the program editing screen 

Procedure 

1 

Press function key 

  to display the program screen. 

2 

Press vertical soft key [PROGRAM].   

 

 - Word editing 

Editing operations such as text insertion, modification, and deletion,

 - Character editing 

Program editing operations and cursor movements are performed on a 
character-by-character basis as with a general text editor. 
Text is input directly to the cursor position instead of using the key 
input buffer.

Switching between program editing modes 

You can switch between word editing and character editing with 
horizontal soft keys. 
 

Procedure 

1  Press function key 

  to display the program screen. 

2  Press vertical soft key [PROGRAM].   
3  Press continuous menu key
