The Registration command (RG) specifies a distance to be moved from the current position – as
commanded by a specific input trigger. For example, in the following program of 10 user–units on axis #1,
the input trigger is received at user–unit 4, to move 3 user–units from the point where the input trigger was
received.
VE2 AC.1 DA10 RG
3 GO
Assume the input is an optical sensor that triggered on a registration mark at a position of 4 user–units. The
commanded move related to the registration move is as follows:

Accompanying the programmable Registration Command is the configurable Registration Input: G (also G in
Serial Setup Commands). To configure a Registration input from the keypad, choose EDIT > SETUP > I/O >
INPUTS. An input configured as a Registration Input is designated by a G on the keypad input status
display. The RG Command will only function if the corresponding input has been configured as a
Registration Input.
Note: Registration Input is only configurable on Input #1 for Axis #1.

Sets the current absolute position to “n”. This command is typically used to adjust or shift a coordinate
system. It is often done after a series of incremental moves to reset the absolute coordinate frame.
Example:
MC+ GO WT1,1 VE0 GO SP10.5
After the move is complete, sets the current position of axis 1 to 10.5.
