Row of Holes
A row of holes, can be programmed two ways:
 By entering the coordinates of the first and last hole
 By entering the coordinates of the first hole, the spacing between
each hole and the row’s angle
The “From” point refers to the center of the first hole, while the “To”
point is the center of the last hole. Any additional holes will be spaced
equally between these two.
You’ll also be prompted for peck and tool retract values. “Peck” lets
you break chips and reduce chip buildup during drilling operations.
“Tool Retract” allows you to program MILLPWR
G2 to raise the tool at
regular intervals.
