Description
The dimension unit (mm or inch) set in the program header only refers to the
position data in the actual program. All other data, such as feedrate or tool offsets,
are entered in the dimension unit that you have set for the entire machine.
The work offset in which the workpiece zero is saved.
You can also delete the pre-setting of the parameter if you do not want to specify a
work offset.

Planes above the workpiece.
During machining the tool travels in rapid traverse from the tool change point to the
return plane (RP) and then to the safety clearance (SC). The machining feedrate is
activated at this level. When the machining operation is finished, the tool travels at
machining feedrate away from the workpiece to the safety clearance level. It travels
from the safety clearance to the retraction plane and then to the tool change point in
rapid traverse. The retraction plane is entered as an absolute value.
The safety clearance must be entered as an incremental value (without sign).
