G80 cancels G80 series calls. Lathes we have that use a G80 series code use them for live tooling only. Looking at a Fanuc manual, I would say that the code you are looking for is G83. Format is:

G83 X(U)_ C(H)_ Z(W)_ R_ P_ F_ K_ M_

where K is the number of repeats if need and M code is for C-axis clamp when needed.

G74 is usually the standard Fanuc drill cycle. A 2-block call is

G74R_
G74X(U)_ Z(W)_ P_ R_ F_

Format for a single block call is

G74Z(W)_ K_ F_

The distance the tool retracts is set by a parameter.

Do you have Macro B? Is so you can write your own drill cycle. I have posted the Hardinge canned cycle several times for Fanuc contols. It is simple to use and very effective. You could search for it if you'd like to see it, or I can repost it for you. (Or PM you)
