Description
Feed the actuator by a specified pitch n times from a reference point.
The pitch and number of repetitions are specified by variables in advance.
Flowchart
Example of Use
Use an OFST command to perform pitch feed.
The number of times the actuator has been fed is counted by a
counter variable.
The X-axis is fed in the positive direction.
Point
An OFST command applies to movement commands.
Executing an OFST command alone does not move the axis.
