Description

This tool sets the Work Offset Coordinate Fixture of the machine CNC controller.

Target Work Offset Coordinates typically include: Fixtures G53 to G59. The G-Code is simply the Fixture (G53, G54, etc...). The coordinate offset fixtures represent:

  • G53 -> Machine coordinate system.
  • G54 -> Scratchpad coordinate system.
  • G55 to G59 -> Coordinate fixtures allowing work offsets, relative to Homing switches located on the CNC machine, to be used.
  • G59 allows extension from G59.1 to G59.255 on many CNC Controllers.

Usage

  1. Press the Fixture button
  2. Select the desired Work Offset Fixture from the drop-menu.

Properties

  • DataFixture: Sets the current fixture point
  • DataActive: Defines if this command is active or not when inserted into a compound
