Circle center I, J

You can define a circle center for circles that you have programmed

with the G02, G03 or G05 function. This is done in the following ways:

Entering the Cartesian coordinates of the circle center in the

working plane, or

Using the circle center defined in an earlier block, or

Capturing the coordinates with the ACTUAL-POSITION-CAPTURE

key

Enter the coordinates for the circle center, or

If you want to use the last programmed position,

enter G29

Example NC blocks

or

The program blocks 10 and 11 do not refer to the illustration.

Duration of effect

The circle center definition remains in effect until a new circle center

is programmed. You can also define a circle center for the secondary

axes U, V and W.

Entering the circle center incrementally

If you enter the circle center with incremental coordinates, you have

programmed it relative to the last programmed position of the tool.

The only effect of CC is to define a position as circle

center: The tool does not move to this position.
The circle center is also the pole for polar coordinates.
If you wish to define the pole in parallel axes, first press

the I (J) key on the ASCII keyboard, and then the orange

axis key for the corresponding parallel axis.
