WinPC-NC Economy Additional Information
The drilling formats prescribe the following syntactical rules,
amongst others, which must be observed when creating or revising
the data.
• Every command must be in its own line
• If coordinates and a tool command are contained in the same line,
then the tool is changed first before drilling takes place at the
position
• The coordinates can also include a decimal point, e.g. X123.456
• All lines before the percent sign(s) are regarded as remarks and
are skipped
