Orientation of the axes
In every G-code dialect, the letters for rotation are assigned as follows:
- A → Rotation around X
- B → Rotation around Y
- C → Rotation around Z
Accordingly, in the standard configuration, the orientation value A specified in the G-code is mapped to RotX, B to RotY and C to RotZ in the SRL program.
The angles are Euler angles. The sequence of the rotation is RotZ, RotY, and RotX. The first rotation takes place around a spatially-fixed axis; the other two around previously rotated axes.
If the orientation of the axes needs to be changed, the assignment of the address letters A, B, C can be changed in the Configuration of address characters configuration menu, e.g. map A to C, map B to B, and map C to A. The new assignment is automatically taken into account during import and export.
