The reference cited below uses the title description "Move In Absolute Coordinates" for the G53 command.
I find this confusing because G53 (based on Fanuc and Smid) is for moves using unaltered machine coordinates, and that G90 and G91 are used to set absolute and incremental modes. I think EMC does a G53 move using machine coordinates, but the documentation makes confusing use of the word absolute to mean machine coordinates in the description of G53.
