W/Z..  =  W groove width, Z last point of groove – specify one or the other -: 
    If W<0 the groove machining is made from right to left of the workpiece. 
    If W>0 the groove machining is made from left to right of the workpiece. 
    If Z < the starting point value, machining is made from right to left of the workpiece 
(toward Z negative). 
    If Z > the starting point value, machining is made from left to right of the workpiece 
(toward Z positive). 
Y*..  =  Linking radius or dimension of chamfer 1 (upper external) 
H*..  =  Linking radius or dimension of chamfer 2 (upper internal) 
K*..  =  Linking radius or dimension of chamfer 3 (lower internal) 
Q*..  =  Linking radius or dimension of chamfer 4 (lower external) 
If Y,H,K,Q, are omitted, the cycles considers them as 0. 
This means that they will be eliminated from the machining (sharp edge). 
D..  =  Defines the type of profile (chamfer or radius) in points 1,2,3,4 (figure 1).

D can assume a value from 0 to 15 according to the elements (chamfers/radii) that constitute the groove 
and how they are arranged. 
First element  : may assume value 0-1 (0= Chamfer, 1= Radius) 
Second element  : may assume value 0-2 (0= Chamfer, 2= Radius) 
Third element  : may assume value 0-4 (0= Chamfer, 4= Radius) 
Fourth element  : may assume value 0-8 (0= Chamfer, 8= Radius) 
On the basis of the sum of the elements the value is calculated for parameter D (see figure 1). 
F..  =  overmetal on end of groove(vertical), radial value and expressed in mm.
