G90 (Canned turning cycle) Fanuc 21i-TB ?

[Jdavis733]

Watched another programmer at work add a Q and R word too the G90 (turning canned cycle) using the P99999 word.

First thing I said was G90 doesn't support Q, you need to define your x positions in following lines.

Then he ran the program and it worked.... WTF?

Went back to my yellow book, and sure enough nothing suggesting you can do this.

Anyone know if there was some kind of update to the 21i-TB manual I missed?

Must say this is very handy, just wish I had the updated syntax.

Haven't tried in G94 yet, but assume it will work as well.
