[Function] Move along a circle originating from the current position and passing the positions specified in
operands 1 and 2.
Therefore, reversing the settings of operands 1 and 2 will implement a circular movement in
the reverse direction.
The output will turn OFF at the start of circular movement, and turn ON when the movement
is complete.
Difference from CIR2:
CIR processing resembles moving along a polygon with a PATH command, while CIR2
actually performs arc interpolation.
Select an applicable command by considering the characteristics of each command.
(Normally CIR2 is used.)

automatically based on priority speed setting), the speed set in the data at passing position 1
or speed set by a VEL command will be used (former is given priority). The speed set in the
data at passing position 2 will have no meaning.
(Note 2) If the division angle is set to a value RWKHUWKDQ³´ZLWKD'(*FRPPDQGQRUPDOGLYLVLRQ
angle), the speed specified in the target position data will be used. (The speed set by a VEL
command will become valid if position data is not specified.)
In the case of circular movement, the axes will return from passing position 2 to the start
position at the speed declared by a VEL command. Therefore, a VEL command must always
be used with a CIR command.
(Note 3) The acceleration is selected in the order of the acceleration in the data at passing position 1,

The deceleration will become the same value as the valid acceleration selected above.
Therefore, the deceleration in the data at passing position 1 and the acceleration/deceleration
in the data at passing position 2 will not have any meaning.
(Note 4) This command is valid on arbitrary orthogonal planes. (Axis 2 may be selected automatically
prior to axis 1 in accordance with the position data.)
