1.6 SETTINGS RELATED TO COORDINATE SYSTEMS
1.6.1 Machine Coordinate System
General
A machine coordinate system uses a machine-specific point as its
origin. The machine coordinate system is set so that the reference
position has the coordinates set in parameter No. 1240 when a
reference position return operation is performed. A desired coordinate
system can be selected using the G53 command, and the tool can be
moved to a position along the axes of the coordinate system by means
of rapid traverse.
Parameter
1240 Coordinates of the first reference position in the machine coordinate system
NOTE
After this parameter has been set, the power must be off turned off
then back on for the setting to become effective.

Caution
CAUTION
Before G53 can be specified, a machine coordinate
system must be set. So, after the power is turned on,
manual reference position return or reference
position return based on G28 must be performed at
least once. This requirement, however, is not
applicable when an absolute-position detector is
mounted.
