You can give it a distance in 2 forms...
@1<45, 0 .... this means from where you are at, go 1" at 45 degrees and keep Z at 0
@1,2,3 ... This means from where you are at go a distance of 1 in X, 2 in Y and 3 in Z(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)

I found that you don't have to use "@" you can just type 1,1,1.

If you don't put the @ sign in, it uses absolute coordinates not relative(incremental)
