Explanation
Display mode
UNITS: Machining plane G17/G18/G19
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
THOUSANDS:
0 = Compatibility mode: contour name is present in _KNAME
1 = Contour name is programmed in CYCLE62 and transferred to _SC_CONT_NAME
Alternative mode
UNITS: End point Z1 (_DP)
0 = Absolute (compatibility mode)
1 = Incremental
TENS: Units for plane infeed
0 = mm/inch
1 = reserved
HUNDREDS: Insertion depth for chamfering (_ZFS)
0 = Absolute
1 = Incremental
