Parameter 10 - Macro M function handling/Probe Stop Handling
This parameter is a bit field that controls various aspects of M functions. The following table shows the functions
performed by the value entered in this parameter. The default value is 0.

2 Decelerate to stop on M105 and M106. With decel.set these moves take
longer and are slightly less accurate. With immediate stop these moves are
faster and more accurate; however the lack of controlled deceleration can
cause excessive machine vibration.
Decel = 4, Immediate
Stop = 0
3 Move to Z home on M6? No = 8, Yes = 0
4 (not used)
This bit was previously used for controlling the type of deceleration to stop
on digitizing and probing moves. This functionality is now controlled by
parameters 366 and 367.
Recommended value
