As above - the distance can be anything, just like any other axis. >And some nobody has asked yet: What effect does G91 have? What >effect does G53 have? Is something like G92 A-10 just an error or >does it have some meaning? The behaviour should be NO different to a linear axis, in fact in my case it is a linear axis that happens to turn one full turn exactly for 360 units (degrees). G90 G1A-10 would rotate ccw all the way back from where it is to -10 If that was G91 G1A-10 it would only move 10 units in a ccw direction (they just happen to be degrees) Steve Blackmore -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
