== Lathe

=== Default Plane

When EMC's interpreter was first written, it was designed for
mills. That is why the default plane is XY (G17). A normal lathe
only uses the XZ plane (G18). To change the default plane place the
following line in the .ini file in the RS274NGC section.

    RS274NGC\_STARTUP\_CODE = G18


=== INI Settings

The following .ini settings are needed for lathe mode in addition
to or replacing normal settings in the .ini file.

    {[}DISPLAY{]}

    DISPLAY = axis

    LATHE = 1

    {[}TRAJ{]}

    AXES = 3

    COORDINATES = X Z

    {[}AXIS\_0{]}

    ...

    {[}AXIS\_2{]}

    ...
