B LIST OF FUNCTION AND TAPE FORMAT
The symbols in the list represent the following.
IP _ : X _ Y _ Z _ A _
As seen above, the format consists of a combination of arbitrary axis
addresses among X, Y, Z, A, B, C, U, V, and W
x : First basic axis (X usually)
y : Second basic axis (Y usually)
z : Third basic axis (Z usually)
a : One of arbitrary addressed
b : One of arbitrary addressed
Xp : X axis or its parallel axis
Yp : Y axis or its parallel axis
Zp : Z axis or its parallel axis
