M-Series Operator’s Manual 4/9/15 1-3
Conventions
*Bold capitalized characters represent keystrokes. For example, the A key is written as A, and the enter key is
written as ENTER. The "Escape" key is written as ESC. Key combinations such as ALT- D mean that you should
press and hold ALT then press D.
*All data entry screens in the M-Series Control use F10 to save changes.
*Any menu in the M-Series Control can be exited by pressing ESC. This will take you back to the previous menu.
This also usually discards any changes you have made in that menu.
*All program examples and software use the standard Cartesian coordinate system (see the figure below). If you
are facing the mill, the X-axis is defined positive to your right; the Y-axis is defined positive to the mill; and the Z-
axis is defined positive upward, perpendicular to the XY plane.
*The direction of motion is defined by the CUTTER motion, not the TABLE motion.
*CW stands for clockwise, and CCW stands for counterclockwise.
