Activating the most recently entered datum: 
M104 
Function
When processing pallet tables, the TNC may overwrite your most 
recently entered datum with values from the pallet table. With M104 
you can reactivate the original datum.
Effect
M104 is effective only in the blocks in which it is programmed.
M104 becomes effective at the end of block.
Moving to positions in a non-tilted coordinate 
system with a tilted working plane: M130
Standard behavior with a tilted working plane
The TNC places the coordinates in the positioning blocks in the tilted 
coordinate system.
Behavior with M130
The TNC places coordinates in straight line blocks in the untilted 
coordinate system.
The TNC then positions the (tilted) tool to the programmed 
coordinates of the untilted system.
Effect
M130 functions only in straight-line blocks without tool radius 
compensation and in blocks in which M130 is programmed. 
Subsequent positioning blocks or fixed cycles are carried 
out in a tilted coordinate system. This can lead to problems 
in fixed cycles with absolute pre-positioning.
The function M130 is allowed only if the tilted working 
plane function is active.
