Position display
As soon as a PLANE function is active, the TNC shows the calculated
spatial angle in the additional status display (see figure). As a rule, the
TNC internally always calculates with spatial angles, regardless of
which PLANE function is active.
During tilting (MOVE or TURN mode) in the Distance-To-Go mode (DIST),
the TNC shows (in the rotary axis) the distance to go (or calculated
distance) to the final position of the rotary axis.
