Using the Move Angular Command

The Angular (Move menu) command is used to position the rotary axes to know angles. See B-axis Angular Convention

One rotary axis can be moved at a time.

The command is available when a driven tool is selected. Currently it is not available when a turning tool is selected.

While moving the C-axis it is possible also to move the linear XYZ axes. The XYZ coordinates are relative to either the machine datum or the currently selected spindle CPL.
