NC FUNCTION

The least command increment is in millimeters or inches, depending on
the machine tool. One of them must be selected using a parameter
beforehand.
The least input increment can be switched between metric input and inch
input by using a G code (G20 or G21) or a setting parameter.
The following least input increments can be set using a parameter:
Increment system Least input increment
IS–B 0.01 mm, 0.01 deg, or 0.001 inch
IS–C 0.001 mm, 0.001 deg, or 0.0001 deg
NOTE
The minimum input increment for inch input is not affected.
The following table lists the maximum strokes of machine tools that are
allowed by the control unit:
