Representation of the ICP elements in the
smart.Turn program
Each ICP dialog in smart.Turn programs is represented by a section
code followed by further G commands. A hole or milling contour
(standard figure and complex contour) contains the following
commands:
 Section code (with reference data of this section):
 FACE_C (XC plane)
 LATERAL_C (ZC plane)
 FACE_Y (XY plane)
 LATERAL_Y (ZY plane)
 G308 (with parameters) as "beginning of the reference plane"
 G function of the figure or hole; sequence of commands with
patterns or complex contours
 G309 as "end of a reference plane"
In nested contours a reference plane begins with G308, the next
reference plane with the next G308, etc. When the deepest level is
finally reached, this reference plane is concluded with G309. Then the
next reference plane is concluded with G309 etc.
Note the following points if you describe milling contours or holes with
G commands and then edit them with ICP:
 Some parameters are redundant in the DIN contour description. For
example, the milling depth can be programmed in the G308 and/or
in the G function of the figure. This redundancy does not appear in
ICP.
 In DIN programming of figures you have the choice between a
Cartesian or polar center dimensioning. The center of the figures is
entered in ICP in Cartesian coordinates.
Example: In the DIN contour description, the milling depth is
programmed in G308 and in the figure definition. If this figure is
changed with ICP, it overwrites the milling depth from G308 with the
milling depth from the figure. When saving, ICP saves the milling
depth in G308. The G function of the figure is saved without milling
depth.

 If you use ICP to edit contour descriptions that were
created with G functions, redundant parameters are
lost.
 If you load a figure with a center in polar dimensions, the
center is converted to Cartesian coordinates.
