(2) When specifying a line with two points
By pressing [XY,XY], you can specify a line with two passing
points.
By pressing [XY, A], you can select the above type by using an
angle again.
Data item Comment
BASE POINT X X coordinate of the base point positioned apart from a line
BASE POINT Y Y coordinate of the base point positioned apart from a line
PASS POINT U X coordinate of the 1st passing point on the line
PASS POINT V Y coordinate of the 1st passing point on the line
PASS POINT P X coordinate of the 2
nd
passing point on the line
PASS POINT Q Y coordinate of the 2
nd
passing point on the line
SHIFT DIST. D When the line should be specified by shifting an original
line, enter the shifting distance
SHIFT DIRC. Select a shifting direction by arrow soft-keys
- Cross point between 2 lines
The cross point of two lines can be calculated. Furthermore, this
calculation can also be done for a line that is shifted from its original
position by some distance.
This can be useful when entering a tool path that is shifted from the
original figure by an amount equal to the tool radius.
(a) When specifying a line with one point and an angle
Initially, the following data items are displayed for Line-1.
