If I recall correctly, G83 is a full-retract chip breaker and G73 is a 0.01 retract chip breaker canned cycle.
I'm not familiar with the Heidenhain TNC310, but it should say in the manual if it supports these canned cycles or not. Do you have the manual, and if so, can you tell us what it says about these cycles?
