14. COMPENSATION FUNCTION

If a G41 or G42 block precedes a block in which G40 and I_, J_, K_ are
specified, the system assumes that the path is programmed as a path from
the end position determined by the former block to a vector determined
by (I,J), (I,K), or (J,K). The direction of compensation in the former block
is inherited.

In the N1 block, the tool center moves towards X.
In the N2 block, the tool moves towards E.

In this case, note that the CNC obtains an intersection of the tool path
