M3 CW rotation of spindle (for master spindle)
M4 CCW rotation of spindle (for master
spindle)
M5 Spindle stop (for master spindle)
Mn=3 CW rotation of spindle (for spindle n) n = 1 or = 2 M2=3 ; CW rotation stop for
spindle 2
Mn=4 CCW rotation of spindle (for spindle n) n = 1 or = 2 M2=4 ; CCW rotation stop for
spindle 2
Mn=5 Spindle stop (for spindle n) n = 1 or = 2 M2=5 ; Spindle stop for
spindle 2
M6 Tool change Only if activated with M6 via the
machine control panel;
otherwise, change directly using
the T command
M40 Automatic gear stage switching

M... Remaining M functions Functionality is not defined by
the control system and can
therefore be used freely by the
machine manufacturer
N Block number -
subblock
0 ... 9999 9999
0 ... 9, only integer,
no sign
Can be used to identify blocks
with a number;
is written in the beginning of a
block
N20
: Block number of a
main block
0 ... 9999 9999
0 ... 9, only integer,
no sign
Special block identification,
used instead of N... ; such a
block should contain all
instructions for a complete
subsequent machining step.
:20
P Number of
subroutine passes
1 ... 9999
0 ... 9, only integer,
no sign
Is used if the subroutine is run
several times and is contained
in the same block as the call
