Moving the Axes with the Distance-To-Go Display
Normally, the display shows the actual position of the tool. However, it
is often more helpful to display the remaining distance to the nominal
position (the distance-to-go). You can then position simply by moving
the axis until the display value is zero.
You can enter the absolute or the relative (incremental) coordinates in
the distance-to-go display. An active radius compensation will be
considered.
Example: Milling a shoulder with distance-to-go
