This means that for the waterline operation’s moves, they are performed in the horizontal plane and for the plane operations in the vertical plane and for the drive operations on vertical mathematical cylinders defined by the appropriate curves etc.

The available engage methods depends on the selected operation typeoperation type. The engage method can be defined in theapproach and retraction modes windowapproach and retraction modes window.
