10.3 Tool Coordinate System
A total of 128 different coordinates, provided as a combination of three-dimensional orthogonal
coordinates and rotation axis coordinates, are defined by the dimensions (offsets) of the tool (hand etc.)
installed on the tool installation surface. Note that tool coordinate system No. 0 is reserved in the system
as the tool coordinate system with 0 offsets.
When a defined tool coordinate system No. is selected, the tool end, not the center of the tool installation
surface, is used as the positioning destination.
Select a defined tool coordinate system and jog the R-axis, and the machine will operate as illustrated below:
