Cartesian or polar coordinates

Control should be made either by using Cartesian coordinates, or polar coordinates. It is not possible to select 2 solutions.

Cartesian coordinates : Three solutions are possible. It's possible to activate them simultaneously.

Along X axis

Control will be made according to the X axis (of the coordinate system specified in the operation)

The DMIS output will be like  xxx, XAXIS, xxx

Along Y axis

Control will be made according to the Y axis (of the coordinate system specified in the operation)

The DMIS output will be like  xxx, YAXIS, xxx

Along Z axis

Control will be made according to the Z axis (of the coordinate system specified in the operation)

The DMIS output will be like  xxx, ZAXIS, xxx

Polar coordinates : Two solutions are possible. It's possible to activate them simultaneously.

Radial position

Control will be made according to the radial coordinate.

The DMIS output will be like  xxx, RADIAL, xxx

Angular position

Control will be made according to the axial coordinate.

The DMIS output will be like  xxx, ANGLE, xxx
