Spindle speed override.
It may be used to vary the spindle turning speed, a typical value being a variation between 50% and 120%. Every time one of these keys is pressed, the speed varies 5%.
These values may be different depending on how the machine manufacturer has defined them.
Spindle orientation. Same as function M19.

Customizing the keys
The machine manufacturer sets the minimum and maximum percentages between which the speed may be varied as well as the percentage of variation every time one of these keys is pressed.
They are set using the following machine parameters.
MINOVR | Minimum override. |
MAXOVR | Maximum override. |
STEPOVR | Override increment (step). |
