I thought this may be of interest to the group so I copied it from a newgroup.

G10 commands are used in conjunction with G91 or G90 codes for replacing or
incremental addition or subtraction of values. L codes determines which
fixture offset, height offset or cutter comp value is changed. P values
indicate offset numbers. L2 is fixture offsets, L10 is hieght offsets, L12
is cutter comp offsets. X,Y, and Z are used to change fixture offsets R0 is
used to change hieght offsets and cutter comp values.

Examples:
To incrementally change E1 1" in X and Y you would program G91 G10 L2 P1 X1.
Y1.
To replace the value in E2 with X2. Y-2. you would program G90 G10  L2 P2
X2. Y-2.
To shift all fixture offsets X1. Y1. you would program G91 G10 L2 P0 X1. Y1.
To incrementally change the height offset #1 -1. you would program G91 G10
L10 P1 R0 -1.
To replace hieght offset 2 with -8.5 you would program G90 G10 L10 P2 R0-8.5
To incrementally change cutter comp #5 +.01 you would program G91 G10 L12 P5
R0+ .01
To replace cutter comp #1 with .5 you would program G90 G10 L12 P1 R0+ .5

There are more L values for reading the values for use in macros. L13 reads
fixture offsets, L14 reads hieght offsets, and L15 reads diameter offsets. P
is used to identify the offset #.

Hope this helps.
