Coordinate system
Coordinate system for each command mode is independent, too.
When axes are moved by motion commands, coordinate positions for
both command modes are to be updated.
With changing command modes, coordinate systems are also to be
changed.
Unlike motion commands, coordinate system setting commands such
as G50(G92) in one command mode do not affect the other’s.
