Note: Other machine functions, lik e tool change (usually M06) or coolant control, have their M-code value
specified by the PLC application not by the CNC softwar e. Most of the M-code values in above list are
configurable.
Other M-codes (up to M699) can be handled by the PLC application based on the par ticular machine
requirements.
