Syntax

Meaning

G90

Absolute input always references an origin. For Cartesian coordinates, the origin is the datum, and for polar coordinates the origin is the pole and the angle reference axis.

G91 corresponds to the I Klartext syntax

Incremental input always references the previously programmed coordinates. For Cartesian coordinates, these are the values in the X, Y, and Z axes, and for polar coordinates, the values of the polar coordinate radius R and the polar coordinate angle H.
