.2 G-Code and M-Code Definitions

G-Code

Description

Label

G80

Use to cancel drill, tap, and bore canned cycles (G81 to G89).

Drilling Off

G81

Basic drilling cycle, generally used for center drilling or hole drilling
that does not require a pecking motion.

Basic Drill Cycle

G82

counter bore drill cycle, generally used for counter boring.

counter bore Drill Cycle

G83

Peck drilling cycle, generally used for peck drilling relatively
shallow holes.

Peck Drill Cycle

G84

Tapping canned cycle, used for tapping holes.

Tapping Cycle

G85

Boring cycle, generally used to make a pass in each direction on
a bore, or to tap with a self-reversing tapping head.

Boring Bidirectional Cycle

G86

Boring cycle that allows the X-axis to back off the bore surface
after the spindle has stopped and oriented itself.

Boring Unidirectional Cycle

G87

Chip-breaker peck-drilling cycle, generally used to peck-drill
medium to deep holes.

Chip Break Cycle

G89

Boring cycle, generally used to program a pass in each direction
with a dwell at the bottom.

Flat Bottom Boring Cycle

G90

Sets 3500i to Absolute Mode.

Absolute

G91

Sets 3500i to Incremental Mode.

Incremental

G92

Shifts the location of Absolute Zero to a preset location. The
preset location, measured from Machine Home, is specified in the
G92 command.

Zero Set

G100

G100 programmed with axis (G100 X) activates “mirror image”
(ON) for that axis. Mirror image reverses the sign (+/-) of
subsequent numbers. More than one axis can be mirrored at once
(G100 XY). To cancel mirror image, program G100 on a block by
itself.

Mirroring

G120

Used to define a window in relation to the X and Y machine home
and the Z part zero.

block form

G133

Used to remove bottom stock left by a previously programmed
pocket cycle.

Bottom Finish

G134

Used to remove side stock left by a previously programmed
pocket cycle.

Side Finish

G162

This cycle allows islands in irregular pockets.
