DOF in APDL

Hi, what should I do to deprive degrees of freedom as on both screenshots? I mean like on the second screenshot so it take DOF for two dimension (radial movment of the model simuleiting bearing) and like on first screenshot.

I will be greateful if somebody of you can explain me it step by step.

Screenshot 2:

What is it NFOR and UFOR?

Thanks for help.
