Explanation
Retraction plane (abs)
Reference point of tool axis (abs)
Safety clearance (to be added to reference point, enter without sign)
Pocket depth (abs/inc), see _AMODE
Pocket diameter or radius, see _DMODE
Reference point 1st axis (abs)
Reference point 2nd axis (abs)
maximum depth setting, see_VARI = by planes
maximum helical setting, see_VARI = helically
Finishing allowance, plane
Finishing allowance, depth
Feedrate for surface machining
Depth infeed rate
Milling direction
0 = Climbing
1 = Conventional
Machining type
UNITS:
1 = Roughing
2 = Finishing
4 = Finishing of edge
5 = Chamfer
TENS: Infeed type (roughing and finishing)
0 = Predrilled, infeed with G0 (pocket is premachined)
1 = Vertical, infeed with G1
2 = Helically
HUNDRED: Reserved
THOUSANDS:
0 = By planes
