What is the difference between S and T coordinate system?

This is an advanced feature of the controller and I have not come across anybody using it. Both vector mode and linear interpolation mode group axes together (vector mode is a group of two axes and LI mode is a group of 2 to 8 axes).

The CA command allows a second group of axes to run in parallel. For example, you can have X and Y performing a planer motion (S) and Z and W performing a completely independent planer motion (T).

Hi,ChrisC,
You are right!
In most cases,we need only one coordinate system.
That is to say,if we need only one coordinate system,we can define it as S or T.Is it right?

Thanks.

Yes, you can use either S or T; however, S is the default.
