Note
The cycle is provided with new functions that are not on earlier software versions.
Consequently certain parameters in the input mask (NUM, RAD, INDA) are no longer
displayed. Multiple slots on one position pattern can be programmed using "MCALL" and
calling the desired position pattern, e.g. HOLES2.

Explanation
Geometrical mode
UNITS: Reserved
TENS: Reserved
HUNDRED: Select machining or just calculate start point
0 = Compatibility mode
1 = Normal machining
THOUSANDS: Dimensioning of reference point, slot length
0 = middle
1 = Inner left-hand +L
2 = Inner right-hand -L
3 = Left-hand edge +L
4 = Right-hand edge -L
Display mode
UNITS: Machining plane G17/18/19
0 = Compatibility, the level effective before cycle call remains active
1 = G17 (only active in the cycle)
2 = G18 (only active in the cycle)
3 = G19 (only active in the cycle)
TENS: Type of feedrate: G group (G94/G95) for surface and depth feedrate
0 = Compatibility mode
1 = G code as before cycle call. G94/G95 same for surface and depth feedrate
HUNDREDS: Reserved
THOUSANDS: Software version identification
1 = Functional extension LONGHOLE (dimensioning of reference point)
Alternative mode
UNITS: Final depth Z1 (abs/inc)
0 = Compatibility
1 = Z1 (inc)
2 = Z1 (abs)
