12. STANDARD and PARAMETRIC subroutines
A subroutine is a part of a program which is suitably identified and can be called in for
execution from any position in a program.
A subroutine may be called in several times from different positions in the program or from
different programs.
A single call can be used to repeat the execution of a subroutine up to 255 times.
A subroutine may be stored in the memory of the CNC as an independent program or as
part of a program.
Standard and parametric subroutines are basically identical. The difference between them
is that up to 10 arithmetic parameters can be defined in the call block (G21 N2.2) of
parametric subroutines.
In standard subroutines the parameters cannot be defined in the call block (G20 N2.2).
The max. number of parameters of a subroutine (standard or parametric) is 255 (P0-P254).
