M-Codes 0-99 are fully customizable. Using M94/95 in a mfunc?.mac file, where ? is the number of the M-Code you want to modify, you can turn on or off any outputs.

Confidence is the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.
I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are where they should be.

Yes, that much I understand.

But is it practical to change axis parameters on-the-fly as I've suggested?

Is there any way to customize canned cycles, other than creating M-macros to mimic the same functionality?

Also, "M-Codes 0-99 are fully customizable" suggests M94/M95 are themselves customizable, which seems bizarre and amusing. Is that really true?

My bad. M-codes 0-90 are customizable.
