The High feedrate mode settings found on the Linking tab allow you to map rapid movements (G0s) into feed moves (G1s).
- Preserve rapid movement - All rapid movements are preserved.
- Preserve axial and radial rapid movement - Rapid movements moving only horizontally (radial) or vertically (axial) are output as true rapids.
- Preserve axial rapid movement - Only rapid movements moving vertically.
- Preserve radial rapid movement - Only rapid movements moving horizontally.
- Preserve single axis rapid movement - Only rapid movements moving in one axis (X, Y or Z).
- Always use high feed - Outputs rapid movements as (high feed moves) G01 moves instead of rapid movements (G0).
The High feedrate mode settings are usually set to make the CNC machine run more smoothly, or to avoid collisions at rapids on CNC machines which perform "dog-leg" movements at rapid. The post processor configuration can also be customized to do the high feed mapping automatically.
