Circle center point CC

Application

The CC circle center function allows you to define a position as a circle center.

Description of function

You define a circle center point by entering coordinates for at most two axes. If you do not enter coordinates, the control uses the last defined position. The circle center point remains active until you define a new circle center point. The control does not traverse to the circle center point.

You need to define a circle center point before you can program a circular path with C.

 
Tip

The control simultaneously uses the CC function as the pole for polar coordinates.
