U
Setup clearance Q200 (incremental): Distance
between tool tip and workpiece surface. Input range 
0 to 99999.9999
U
Workpiece surface coordinate Q203 (absolute):
Absolute coordinate of the workpiece surface. Input 
range –99999.9999 to 99999.9999
U
2nd setup clearance Q204 (incremental): Coordinate
in the spindle axis at which no collision between tool 
and workpiece (fixtures) can occur. Input range 0 to 
99999.9999
U
Plunging strategy Q366: Type of plunging strategy:
0 = vertical plunging. The TNC plunges 
perpendicularly, regardless of the plunging angle 
ANGLE defined in the tool table.
1 = helical plunging. In the tool table, the plunging 
angle ANGLE for the active tool must be defined as 
not equal to 0. Otherwise, the TNC generates an 
error message. Plunge on a helical path only if there 
is enough space.
2 = reciprocating plunge. In the tool table, the 
plunging angle ANGLE for the active tool must be 
defined as not equal to 0. The TNC will otherwise 
display an error message.
U
Feed rate for finishing Q385: Traversing speed of the
tool during side and floor finishing in mm/min. Input 
range: 0 to 99999.9999; alternatively FAUTO, FU, FZ.
