You need to define the center point and rotation direction, CW and CCW.
The motor will start from its current point and the diameter will be calcu-
lated automatically.

CircleXY_UVW: Similar to CircleXY, only the UVW axes will perform
line movement along with XY axes. The movement of all axes will start
and stop at the same time.

ArcXYZ: A 3D arc will be performed. The path is calculated by using
three points: current location, destination, and reference point. The dis-
tance between the destination and the reference point is calculated by
referring to the coordinate mode defined in the parameter setting page.
Please refer to part 4.3 for details.
