- Feedrate and alarm
The tool, when moving from the stating position toward the
measurement position predicted by xa or za in G36 or G37, is fed at
the rapid traverse rate across area A. Then the tool stops at point T
(xa-γ or za-γ) and moves at the measurement feedrate set by parameter
(No. 6241) across areas B, C, and D. If the approach end signal turns
on during movement across area B, alarm is generated. If the approach
end signal does not turn on before point V, and tool stops at point V
and alarm PS0080 is generated.

- G code
If parameter G36 (No. 3405#3) has been set to 1, G37.1 and G37.2 are
used as the G codes for automatic tool compensation for the X- and
Z-axes, respectively.
