The reflections only affect the motion path that is translated and not any DMC
commands which are directly included within a macro. For example, "PR2000,2000"
would not be affected by the REVERSE_X or REVERSE_Y commands. The reflection
origin is with respect to the FIRST point in the drawing. Some systems may require the
reverse commands to achieve the expected motion paths. For example, a stationary
cutter operating on a moving XY table would need to have both axes reversed in order
to have the cuts made as drawn.
SCALE
PURPOSE:
SCALE is used to relate encoder resolution to the user units used in a CAD drawing. It
is usually a function of encoder resolution, lead screw pitch and gear ratios which
connect the motor to the system.
USAGE:
SCALE= X,Y
where X and Y are the encoder counts per user unit for the X and Y axes,
respectively
