P1: Transverse axes
12.1 Brief description
Several transverse axes in the channel
The introduction several transverse axes in the channel involves a functional decoupling of diameter
programming and reference axis for G96/G961/G962. Diameter programming and reference axis for G96/G961/
G962 can be active for different transverse axes (see table below).

DIAM*: DIAMOF, DIAMON, DIAM90, DIAMCYCOF
DIAM*A[AX]: DIAMOFA[AX], DIAMONA[AX], DIAM90A[AX], DIACYCOFA[AX], DIAMCHANA[AX]
AX: Axis identifier for geometry/channel or machine axis identifier
Note
Rotary axes are not permitted to serve as transverse axes.
Programming the transversing paths
The traverse paths of a transverse axis programmed in the part program may be either radius- or diameter-
based. It is possible to switch between the two reference types with the part program commands DIAMON
(DIAMeter ON = diameter) and DIAMOF (DIAMeter OF = radius). In this way, dimensional information can be
taken directly from the technical drawing without conversion.
