motion 5 is a specialised variant of GRBL which is focused on motion of up to five CNC axes and laser processing instead of milling. It supports ATMega MCUs running with up to 20 MHz and provides jitter-free pulses with a frequency of up to 38 kHz.

Wherever usage and handling of motion5 is different to original GRBL, this is described in Wiki. For the G-code commands please note that motion5 supports more axes which are named "A" and "B". So a GRBL-command "G1X10.0Y20.0Z10.0" which moves its three axes would be e.g. "G1X10.0Y20.0Z10.0A20.0B30.0" in motion5 to move all five axes.
