- Block containing G40 and I_J_K_
The previous block contains G41 or G42
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 point 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 nose radius center moves
towards P.
In the N2 block, the tool nose radius moves towards E.

In this case, note that the CNC obtains an intersection of the tool path
irrespective of whether inner or outer side machining is specified.

When an intersection is not obtainable, the tool comes to the normal
position to the previous block at the end of the previous block.
