Gary asks the same question every year when he forgets which post
processor to use with his 3rd party cad-cam program. I referred him
back to the same question he had asked the year before. The book he
is referring to is not the Deskcnc documentation, but a manual for an
old hardwired controller that has drilling cycles that are formatted
differently than DeskCNC.

DeskCNC drilling cycles are formatted the same as EMC, Mach, etc.

Have a nice day.
