G-Code
This may be specific to Acorn CNC at HSL.
Comments
Comments are in parentheses.
G0X0Y0 (rapid traverse to origin)
Active Units
G20 (set active units to inches) G21 (set active units to millimeters)
Feeds
F sets the feed rate in the active units.
G20 (inches) F15 (15 inches per minute) G1X0Y0 (traverse to origin at 15 IPM) G21 (millimeters) F375 (375 mm per minute) G1X0Y0 (traverse to origin at 375mmPM)
Straight Line Traversal
G0 is fast traversal. Careful not to run the tool into the part. Each axis is run at full speed until reaching its destination (ie: the tool follows multiple line segments, not an interpolated straight line).
G0X3 (fast traverse the X axis to origin + 3 units)
G0X1Y2Z3 (fast traverse to { 1, 2, 3 })
