Novag Citrine instructions

What do Novag's level setting instructions mean by the terms "ply" and
"capture"?

Thank you

A ply is a half of a move. A move in chess is one complete 'set' if you will by white + black. A ply is half of that
(so if a computer is looking 6 ply deep then it is looking 3 complete moves ahead)

Capture, is when a piece is taken
