Specify spindle position
The spindle position is specified in degrees. Three spindle positions are possible for each
NC block. If nothing is specified, traversing automatically takes place as for DC. With
incremental dimensioning IC (INC), spindle positioning can take place over several
revolutions.

Example of positioning spindle with negative direction of rotation
Position spindle 2 at 250° in negative direction of rotation.

Wait for spindle position to be reached, spindle stop after M5, spindle
speed after M3/M4
WAITS applies to the master spindle, WAITS( ..., ...) for the specified
spindle numbers
Integers from 1 ... n of spindle number
Integers from 1 ... m of master spindle
nth Spindle number, 0 to max. spindle number
Channel identifier
Percentage specification 100-0% referred to the braking ramp for
block changes. If no % is specified, the current value of the setting
data is applied.
