If you want to mill a pocket, spigot or longitudinal slot at more than
one position, you must program a separate positioning block. When
you call the milling cycle, use softkey "Alternat." to select "Pos.
pattern" in the "Single position" parameter field. The parameters for
single positions X0, Y0 and Z0 then disappear from the display.

After you have finished programming the cycle and stored it, you need
to program the position pattern.

ShopMill automatically chains the milling cycle and the subsequently
programmed position pattern.
