Operation example 2. When a local coordinate system (G52) is set
When an operation is performed so that the current position (machine
coordinates: X50.000, Y150.000) is the origin of workpiece coordinate
system No. 1 (provided that the common workpiece origin offset is 0 for
X and Y)

The origin of the new G54 workpiece origin offset is not located at the
current position but shifted from the position by the local coordinate
offset set with G52. In other words, the local coordinate system (G52)
is not canceled even if the workpiece origin is set manually.
