Offset types

Overview of clamp position offsets that are selectable in parallel:

Offset types 1:
Overview of all offset types

Special case in G91 mode:

Newly selected offsets are only effective after the next absolute programmed position (G90) since only the specified motion path may only be travelled in the case of relative programming (G91).

Tool offset exception: With appropriate parameterisation, tool offsets are travelled directly without programming a path movement when the D word (P-CHAN-00100) is selected.
