Plane Select Parameters
Chapter 18
18-10
A value for this parameter may be chosen from these allowable axis
names: A, B, C, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, $B, $C, $X, $Y, or $Z. A value of
“None” may also be selected indicating that there are not two axes parallel
to that primary axis in the plane selected with that G-code.
Important: Do not use this parameter if a value has not been set for the
parameter that assigns the 1st axis parallel to a primary axis.

Notes
This is a global parameter; the value set here applies to all axes.
For Dual Processing controls, this is a per process parameter. The value set
in the parameters applies to all of the axes assigned to that process.
Important: If you are performing planar functions on parallel axes, both
the parallel axis and the primary axis must be defined to use the same
integrand word.
