FL - Feed to Length
Compatibility:
See also:
All drives
AC, DE, DI, VE commands
Executes a relative move command. Move distance and direction come from the last DI command. Speed, accel and decel are
from the VE, AC and DE commands, respectively. Executing the FL command with no parameter initiates a feed to length move
that uses the last DI command for direction and distance. Executing the FL command with a parameter uses the parameter
settings for direction and distance without changing the DI command.
