Code Description Comment
D Tool Diameter MILLPWR does not support automatic cutter compensation.
Specifying a tool diameter index while cutter compensation is in
effect will generate a run-time error. Specifying a diameter index
while cutter compensation is off has no effect and is ignored.
F Set Feed Rate
Cutter Compensation
(Right)
G42
G40
MILLPWR does not support automatic cutter compensation.
Enabling compensation (G41 or G42) while a diameter (D is not
equal to 0) is in effect will generate a run-time error. Enabling
compensation with no tool diameter specified (D = 0) has no
effect and is ignored.

Return to Home
Reference MILLPWR does not have a method for establishing a “home”
position. If one or more coordinates are specified in the block,
the table/quill will rapidly move to that location. Program execu-
tion will continue with the next program block.
These commands set the unit of measure. The setting applies
to current and subsequent blocks. The default is G20 (INCH). Set Program Units (Inch) G20
G19
G18
YZ Plane Selection
XZ Plane Selection
G17 XY Plane Selection
This command causes the system to pause for a specified
period of time
prior to any motion commands within the blocks.
The period of time is determined by the P value.
These commands generate table/quill motion. The motion com-
mand applies to current and subsequent blocks containing at
least one X, Y, or Z coordinate. The default motion command is
a linear move at feed (G1).
Circular Interpolation
(CCW)
G3
G4 Dwell
G2
Circular Interpolation (CW)
G1 Linear Interpolation (Feed)
The feed rate uses the current program units in effect (ipm or
mmpm). The setting applies to current and subsequent blocks.
The default is determined from MILLPWR’s configuration
setup.
Linear Interpolation (Rapid) G0
G41
These commands set the plane in which arcs are executed.
The setting applies to current and subsequent blocks. The
default is G17 (XY).
