Differences between Cycles 31 to 33 and Cycles 481
to 483

The features and the operating sequences are absolutely identical.
There are only two differences between Cycles 31 to 33 and Cycles
481 to 483:

Cycles 481 to 483 are also available in controls for ISO
programming under G481 to G483.

Instead of a selectable parameter for the status of the
measurement, the new cycles use the fixed parameter

Q199.
