G90/G91: Distance Command Type Selection (Absolute, Incremental)
Specifies whether the target values for axis movements will be programmed as absolute or incremental.In absolute programming mode, the axes move to the coordinates specified by the command.In incremental mode, the axes move by the distance specified in the command relative to their current position.

G91: The target coordinates are programmed as incremental
In the lathe model, if the U/V/W axes are not defined, the U/V/W commands are used as incremental commands for the X/Y/Z axes. Both in G90 and G91 modes, the U/V/W commands serve as the incremental commands for the X/Y/Z axes, respectively.
