Machining with the back spindle is exactly the same as with the main spindle ; the same ISO functions, 
same Fixed Cycles. Attention must be paid to the axis Z sign, which for the back spindle will be positive for 
machining and negative for approach and separation. We also advise the use of different origins on the 
first and second spindle (e.g. G54 on the main spindle and G55 on the secondary one). The passage of 
the part between the main spindle and the secondary spindle takes place by means of three macro which 
have been prepared by Graziano: 
•  O9100 => Workpiece change-over macro with parting off 
•  O9101 => Workpiece change-over macro with parting off but no extraction 
•  O9102 => Workpiece change-over macro without parting off
