Grinder Control Type is not available for Release 1 of 9/PC.

This item is used to determine the axes in the currently active plane.
This item returns the axis number of the logical axes in the process.
If a zero is reported to the logical axis number that axis is not in the
currently active plane. Dual axes will return a set bit for all axes in
the dual group if the group is in the process. For example:

PLANE_AXES_INDICES.2, 1

Returns an integer array of axes currently in the plane. If this returns
a 3, this would indicate the third logical axes in process two are in
the currently active plane. The first array reterns the number of the
first axis in the plane. The second array the second axis in the plane.

Grinder Control Type is not available for Release 1 of 9/PC.

This item is used to determine what axes are currently configured as

logical axes in the process. If a zero is reported to the logical axis
number that axis is not configured as a rollover axis. A one

ROLLOVER_AXIS_LOGICAL_BIT_PATTERN.1

Could return the bit pattern 00000100. This would indicate that the
third axis in the process is configured as a rollover axis.
