2.2.3 CURRENT POSITION SET (POS)
Caution
D
Care is required with the CURRENT POSITION SET (POS) command.
The CURRENT POSITION SET (POS) command is used to create new workpiece coordinate system val-
ues. If POS is specified incorrectly, subsequent move operations will be entirely different. Before starting
operations, be sure to check that the workpiece coordinate system is specified correctly.
Failure to carry out this check may result in damage to equipment, serious personal injury, or even death.

Overview
The CURRENT POSITION SET (POS) command is used to create a new coordinate system by
switching the current position to the desired coordinate values. In this manual, this newly set
coordinate system is called a “workpiece coordinate system.” Move commands designated after
the POS command are executed in the workpiece coordinate system.
