M-Code for Macro Call and Macro Called for M-Code
The M-Code for macro call and Macro called for M-Code Setup
Parameter Group ranges from MC_4400 through MC_4419. Up to 10
M-codes can be assigned to call macros. The M-code number must be
greater than zero. The associated macro number must be specified after
the M-code. The macro number must also be greater than zero. The
macro must be in a macro file that is loaded by the CNC at start-up. This
will allow the M-code to be used from manual or in a program. M-Codes
that are assigned macros are not passed to the IPI. If the macro number
is not assigned, then the M-code is passed to the IPI. For example, for
MC_4400 enter 35; for MC_4401 enter 900. This means that whenever
M35 is executed the system will run macro O900, if macro is not found
then an error is generated.
Tool Management
The Tool Management Setup Parameter Group ranges from MC_5000
through MC_5099.
