Fig11.15 Programmable Mirror image
A programmable mirror image will not be cleared with a reset (if bit 0 of
parameter No. 6401 is 1).
An alarm will be issued if a G code for three-dimensional coordinate
conversion is specified in a programmable mirror image.
When a programmable mirror image is effective, G41.1 and G42.1 for
normal direction control will be automatically replaced with each other
(if bit 2 of parameter No. 6401 is 0).
If a programmable mirror image is applied to the rotation-direction-
controlled axis (bit 2 (RSR) of Parameter No.1007 is 1) controlled with
the sign of multiple-rotary axis control, the rotation direction will be
reversed with the sign (if bit 1 of parameter No. 6401 is 0).
