NOTE
For type C operation, the following conditions must be
satisfied when tool side compensation is started up or
canceled :
1 The block containing G40, G41.2, or G42.2 must be
executed in the G00 or G01 mode.
2 The block containing G40, G41.2, or G42.2 must have no
move command.
3 The block after the block containing G41.2 or G42.2 must
contain a G00, G01, G02, or G03 move command.
- Operation in the compensation mode
Changing of offset directions and offset values, holding of vectors, interference checks,
and so on are performed in the same way as for cutter compensation. G39 (corner
rounding) cannot be specified. So, note the following :
(1) When the tool center path goes outside the programmed tool path at
a corner, a linear movement block, instead of an arc movement
block, is inserted to move the tool around the corner. When the tool
center path goes inside the programmed tool path, no block is
inserted.

In the above examples, the term "inside" means that the tool center
path is positioned inside the programmed tool path at a corner, and
"outside" means that the tool center path is positioned outside the
programmed tool path. In Example (1)-3, the relationship between
the tool center path and the programmed tool path is the same as in
Example (1)-1; the tool center path is positioned outside the
programmed tool path. Example (1)-4 has the same relationship as
Example (1)-2, where the tool center path is positioned inside the
programmed tool path.
