    Helical cycle

    Hi, this is the description of helical cycle:
    - Direction of helix (G2 CW, G3 CCW)
    - CENTER POINT of the arc (I,J,K, OR P)
    - LEAD OF HELIX (I OR J OR K)
    - END POINT OF THE MOVE (X or U, Y or V, Z or W)
    example:
    G3 G17 X16.6868 Y11.0746 Z10.5 F50 K.8471 I15 J10
    good luck.
