What is the proper format for writing an M201 command?

Ex: N100 M201 "move clamp"
OR
N100 M201 move clamp

M201 seems to be used differently in different systems and I cannot find an example of how the prompt message is entered for Centroid.

M200 example from Chapter 13 of the Operator manual...

M200 "#)1. Jog the X axis to the desired X0 position\n2. Jog the Z axis to the
desired Z0 position.\n3. Press Cycle Start to continue."
