Function
This parameter specifies the name of the machine axis that will be end face
milling axis during virtual C end face milling. This axis will be
perpendicular to the diameter and feed axes during virtual C end
face milling.
Important: The machine axis named as the end face milling axis must not
be an axis in the current machine configuration.

Notes
This parameter is used for lathe controls only.
In the dual--processing lathe, this is a per process parameter. The value set
in the parameters applies to all of the axes assigned to that process.
This feature is not available on the 9/230 control.
