Need Help!- Polar interpolation on 10T

[guhl]

Hi
How to compel my Tsugami NU4B lathe (no Y-axis) with 10T control to execute polar interpolation?

To my knowledge, the 10M had an option for polar interpolation, but the 10T did not.

But in manual G12.1/G13.1 - polar interpolation mode on/off.
I really don't know the option parameter.

I get confused when talking about polar interpolation. One way I learned was being able to call a length and angle "G01 Z-.2 E20.0" for a line .2 from Z zero at a 20 degree angle. The other was for live tooling and milling contours. Which is which? What are you needing to do?

I need to make this part on the lathe with live tooling. My manual says that in case of G12.1 rotary C-axis represented as stright axis.
