2. Enter the On and Off codes, or select Multi-code and click Configure to use multi-code coolant, where you can specify different on and off codes depending on the turret and tool being used.
3. Under Separate codes with, select an option to determine how to separate multiple codes when they are used together in the NC code.

   Newline — Select this option to use a line break between coolant codes in the NC code.

   Space — Select this option to use a space between coolant codes in the NC code.

   Nothing — Select this option to not separate coolant codes in the NC code.

   Other — Select this option and enter a string to use between coolant codes in the NC code.

   Note: This applies to the <COOLANT> and <CANCEL-COOL> reserved words only.
4. Click OK to close the dialog.
