Drills/bores a hole pattern in the active WCS. Drag the handles in the 2D layout (left) to set the pattern — round handle sizes it, square handle places it; the 3D view (right) verifies the cut. Peck = plunge (hole Ø = drill); Bore = ring-step an end mill (hole Ø ≥ tool). Spindle start + end-of-program are added from Settings.

The boundary you type is the FINISHED edge; the toolpath is offset to a side (outside / inside / on) by the tool radius and stepped down to depth.

MAGAZINE & TOOL CHANGE
TOOL CHANGE
Parks safely (G53 Z to the change height, then G53 X/Y to the change position) then emits a bare M6 — the controller runs its own working tool-change handler. The change position reuses Park X/Y from the magazine settings.
Firmware-accurate FIXED-STATION PUSH from slib-m.nc O10102: #1306 highest Z → push start #1320/#1321 → dwell #1322 → push end #1323/#1324 (F#1327) → retreat #1325/#1326, with the real pneumatic M-codes (M159/M157/M160/M163/M156/M161). ASSUMED to be taught on your controller — verify before running.
ASSUMED model — the real M350 O10102 is a pneumatic push station, not this drawbar changer. Pocket positions come from the controller tables (#1330+ X · #1350+ Y · #1370+ Z) — teach them first. Verify on your machine before trusting this.

Generate a safe machine-homing macro. Each axis homes by its method from Homing Setup (native = the controller's built-in home, the safest default). Tick the axes to home this run; the sequence follows your saved order. The 3D preview runs a motion model of the homing (the emitted macro uses the controller's M98 home subs).
