NOTE:
The MCW(table, point) command is
mandatory
when using cam mode (MC)
It should be called after the creation of cam tables but before the G command. If
cam tables already exist in memory from a power-on, then MCW should be called
at least once before the G command to enter cam mode. Refer to the following
example.
