ORIGIN
 
Origin is another way to shift axis coordinates. It shifts the axis coordinates by the operator
amount.
 
Examples:
G0 A437
ORIGIN A20 (A axis position is now 417) 
 
G0 A33.285
ORIGIN A2.1 (A axis position is now 31.185) 
 
G0 A361
ORIGIN A360 (A axis position is now 1) 
 
G0 A-500
ORIGIN A360 (A axis position is now -860)
Note: The origin command also shifts the software limits. .
