 The two separate commands allow for a variety of stopping configurations. M02.plc procedure will often be set to have some sort of lift control to prevent issues due to the working tool potentially coming into contact with the working material/surface, while the OFF.plc might be set to clear all relevant ports to turn the system off, and end the program without any additional movement. Alternatively, on some profiles the OFF.plc will not perform any additional actions as compared to M02.plc, or vice versa - the configuration depends almost entirely on the particular needs of the user and the machine.
 Sometimes, when issues arise with the lift procedure, or with any of the processes described in the M02 procedure, it is advisable to click the Stop button twice in order to obtain a complete and total G-code run shutdown (if that is the way that the codes have been set up).
