The current machine's state  is given by a coordinate triple, and some states (emergency swich, spindle speed, ...). The machine '''coordinate system''' is defined by the now automated homing routine. Thereafter, one can move the machine to a location, and "touch off", giving explicit coordinates for this location. Thereby the working coordinate system is defined. This is also the system displayed in Axis, However, in the background, the machine still works in the home-coordinate system for checking its movement limits. Clever!

== Nomenclature ==
Or the what is which device:
* CNC PC: a Linux machine running the LinuxCNC Software and sends out commands via Parallel Port
* G4: a old Apple G4 Case holding the stepper drivers
* Stepper Driver: Each stepper driver controls one stepper. There are 5 Stepper Driver in the G4: 2x X, 1x Y, 1x Z, 1x A (currently unused)
* Breakout Board: Is used to "convert" the parallel commands to a different protocol that the stepper drivers are using. Also has a VFD Port to control the Frequenconverter
* FU/Frequenzumrichter/Frequencyconverter: This Box controls the Spindle. It has a output of 100 to 400Hz on 3 Phases and gets controlled by the Breakout Board.
