+===Items===
+Items are a subset of actions, and are usually written as item:item-name (such as item:motion-rapid-speed-xy). Items are different from actions in that items effectively describe a value that can be changed by some input. In this way, there can exist both an action with some name, and an item with that same name, which are separate from one another. Items are often presented to the user on the myCNC software screen to display relevant information which can then be edited (such as the jog overspeed, spindle speed, etc). The relevant actions for such items would be along the lines of motion-overspeed-inc or motion-overspeed-dec, describing a particular action to perform with this item (value).
+A list of commonly used items can be found in the [[mycnc:item_list|Common Item List]].
