That's a canned cycle. (Like a drill cycle). I set up my post processor for Mastercam so I can do either serial engraving or standard letter engraving using a drilling cycle. The commands for HAAS is G47. Does not work in incremental.
E = Plunge Rate
F = Feed
I = Angle of Rotation
J = Scale
P = 1 for serial
P = 0 for literal
R = Return Plane
The initial serial number can be set manually in macro variable #599.
Enjoy.
