If you enter B (DepthCut), the CNC executes the number of passes
required to get from the H (StartHgt) to Z (ZDepth), cutting to the
Depth Cut = B (Z Max.cut) on each pass.

When you enter an S (FinStock) value, the CNC leaves the specified
stock on the profile and depth for a finish pass. The CNC finishes to
the entered diameter on the finish pass. Enter a negative S
(FinStock) to leave the finish stock without making a finish pass.

If you do not enter a J (RoughFeed) or K (FinFeed) value, the CNC
executes feed moves at the current feedrate. J controls feedrate of
the roughing cycle. K controls the feedrate of the finishing cycle.
