OUTLINE

NC programs include those which are prepared by custom macro and very seldom altered and those which may differ from one another according to relevant machining such as part programs. This function is that which converts the created custom macro program to execu–

at the machine tool builder and executes it. Further, the conversational macro can also be executed independently in parallel with a normal NC program by means of converting the conversational macro program to execution format (P–CODE program).

FEATURES

(1) Since the custom macro is converted into an execution format and

registered, the execution speed is high. This will shorten the machining time and improve the machining accuracy.

(2) The registration to the ROM eliminates prevents custom macro

damage through misoperation. This will improve the reliability.

(3) Since the converted program into execution format is not indicated

on the program display, the machine tool builder’s knowhow can be protected.

(4) Since the execution format program is registered in the ROM, the

program edit memory can effectively be used.

(5 ) The user can call the execution format program (P–CODE program)

with an easy call procedure without being conscious of the registered program.

(6) Using the conversational function and conversational macro,

execution can be performed.

(7) There is an auxiliary macro for executing regardless of the selected

mode and screen.

(8) Compiling the NC program, and ROM output can be performed by

the Series 15 itself.

(9) When compiled in Series 15, without writing the execution format

program to ROM, it can be started up as it is and execution/debug can be performed.

OUTLINE

A custom macro program is converted to executable form (hereafter called a P–CODE programs), then registered in flash ROM (hereafter called F–ROM). The registered P–CODE program can be called from the user programs and executed by using the G, M or T code (execution Macro) or by setting the program number in the associated parameter (conversational macro execution).

USE OF MACRO COMPILER

2.3.1

Registering a P–CODE Program in F–ROM Using a Memory Card (When Compiled with a Personal Computer)

The P–CODE program created by compiling a custom macro program can be registered in F–ROM in any one of the following ways:

(1) When the P–CODE program is compiled with a personal computer,

it can be registered in F–ROM using a memory card.

(2) When the P–CODE program is compiled with a personal computer

or System P, it can be registered in F–ROM using a ROM cassette.

(3) Series 15–B can compile the P–CODE program for registration in

F–ROM.

Note

The P–CODE program resident in F–ROM can be saved onto a memory card via the boot system and copied to another F–ROM unit.

This method uses a memory card to register a P–CODE program compiled with a personal computer in the F–ROM unit of Series 15–B. For how to compile a program, refer to the FAPT Macro Compiler (for Personal Computer) Programming Manual (B–66102E).

Note

The PMC slot is used as the memory card interface. The memory card can be inserted or removed while the power is turned on. When the boot system is active, make sure that the main menu [see Fig. 2.3.1(c)] is displayed on the screen before inserting or removing the memory card. Otherwise, proper access is not made, and the contents of the memory card files may be destroyed.

2) Turn on the power of the CNC unit while holding down the page–up and page–down keys. The boot system is activated, and the following screen appears.

INTERFACE WITH USER PROGRAM AND EXECUTION MACRO IN P–CODE PROGRAM

Only a registered P–CODE program cannot be executed. It is called from the user program by G, M, T code, or specified code by parameter setting, and executed. In case of macro call, argument designation is possible, and it is compared as a local variable at the P–CODE (execution macro) side. Further, for the specification method for the argument, in the same manner as the normal NC macro, there are possible 2 types of specification methods, argument specification I, argument specification II, or a mixture of argument specification I and II. Regarding argument specification I and argument specification II, refer to FANUC Series OPERATOR’S MANUAL (macro call command). Moreover , if a minus value is set at parameter as for macro call by G code, modal call of P–CODE program can be done by corresponding G code.

Note

If the system features a SUB–CPU, only programs 9000 to 9999 can be stored and executed as execution macros.

The priorities of calling custom macros by G, M, S, T , and B, and calling macro executors by G, M, S, T, and B are as follows:

High LowPriority

Calling custom macros by G, M, S, T, and B

Calling macro executors by G, M,

>>>

S, T, and B

Calling macro executors by special codes

Calling macro executors by M–code with range specified

Call of each macro, comparison of subprogram call code and program number to be called is determined by a compile parameter.

(1) The return sequence number definition for returning to the user’s

program When operational control is returned to the user’s program from the P–CODE program, control passes to the sequence number of the user’s program defined by address P.

(2) Macro modal call is enabled by setting a negative value in the

G–CODE parameters (Nos. 8513 to 8522) for macro call. For example, –11 set in a parameter represents G1 1 for a modal call state. Whether the modal call state corresponds to G66 or G66.1 depends on parameter No. 8509, MODC. The macro modal call function can be used to call a P–CODE program from a CNC program. The function cannot be used to call a P–CODE program from a P–CODE program. G67 is used for modal call cancellation. For the detailed specifications, refer to the description of macro call using G–CODEs in the FANUC Series 15 operator’s manual.

1 No P–CODE program can be called from a P–CODE

program in the modal call mode.

2 In the modal call state, no P–CODE program can be called

in the macro call or subprogram call mode.

(3) Subprogram call using special codes

By setting character codes (decimal notation of ASCII codes) to the parameters (No. 8544,8545), the P–CODE program (09004, 09005) corresponding to the address can be called as a subprogram. The defined integer will be stored as a parameter to the macro variable (#146, #147). The actual use of this function is decided by specifying the appropiate parameter (No.8508 ACL1 ACL2).

CONVERSATIONAL MACRO FUNCTION



B–62073E–2/03

4.1

OVERVIEW

The conversational macro function is the function to independently execute the compiled macro program by the P–CODE program compiler and the normal NC part program operation.

This function is executed at a lower level than automatic operation processing. Further, this function is unrelated to such as whether there are basic operation modes or whether or not it is during automatic operation. Therefore, the conversational macro function operates independently in parallel to the NC part program even during automatic operation.

The following functions can be realized by the conversational macro.

 Read/write of macro variable (local variable, common variable,

system variable)

 Macro command  Screen display (character screen, graphic screen)  Reading of keys  Reading of NC parameters  Read/write of files  Other conversational macro exclusive functions

There are also other auxiliary macro functions as conversational macro functions. These functions are executed at an execution level the same as the conversational macro function.

The following functions can be executed in this function.

 Macro command (definition of variable, replacement, addition type

calculation, branching, repetition)

 Read/write of common variables (#100–#199)  Startup of conversational macro body  Simple call (G65, M98)  Read/write of P–CODE exclusive variables  Data reading of A/D converter  Conversational window function  Reading of relative coordinates  Reading of cutting time and cutting distance, and preset  Torque limit override control  RS–232–C control

Note

The conversational macro function and the execution of the auxiliary macro function are processed at a lower level than the NC operation processing. Therefore, the execution of the conversational macro function is not influenced by the processing speed of the NC operation, but it is that the conversational macro and the auxiliary macro processing speeds will be slowed down during NC operation.

4.CONVERSATIONAL MACRO FUNCTION

If both the auxiliary and conversational macro functions have been specified, the following operations are performed:

1) Conversational macro screen Conversational and auxiliary macros are alternately executed, in this order.

2) Other than conversational macro scree Only auxiliary macros are executed.

The conversational macro function is available to use with MMC–II. All the custom macro formats of Series 15 are described in the macro

format of the conversational macro program. Further, all the system variables which can be referred to by the P–CODE program and the common variables can all be read and written. However, there is no function to refer to local variables held by the NC. (However, conversational macro function exclusive local variables have been provided.)

4.2

CONVERSATIONAL MACRO FUNCTION

The execution of the conversational macro function is processed internally at a lower level than the automatic operation processing. Therefore, the execution of the conversational macro function is not influenced by the processing speed of the automatic operation. However, it is possible that the conversational macro function processing speed will be slowed down during automatic operation. Because of this, there is no guarantee that the conversational macro body must periodically be executed.

The following functions can be executed at this level.

 Macro call instructions (all macro call instructions which can be

commanded in automatic operation)

 Read/write of macro variable (local variable, common variable,

system variable)

 Reading of NC parameters  Reading of keys  Screen display (character screen, graphic screen)  Read/write of files  Other conversational macro exclusive functions

Normal NC format cannot be executed in conversational macro program NC format. It is ignored if commanded. Further, note that in the conversational macro program NC format the meaning of addresses and method of use is different from in the normal NC format.

The conversational macro screen to be started up by the conversational macro progam is under the same control as other screens (POS screen, etc.). Because of this the conversational macro screen must be finished to switch to other screens. The timing of this finishing is decided when M99 of the main program is executed. Note that if the conversational macro program is a program like the following bad example, switching to other screens will not be possible and the hangup state will occur.

Bad example Good example

Key input?

For the conversational macro program, perform programming such that it becomes a cyclic program to return to sequence number specified by head of main program or M99 Pp, after executing M99 like the PMC ladder program.

By means of the above, avoid programming in which the branch destination goes in the reverse direction by GOTO.

4.CONVERSATIONAL MACRO FUNCTION

(1) Starting up conversational macro program

Conversational macros can be executed by pressing the TALK MACRO soft key or when activated by an auxiliary or execution macro.

The program to be started up is the program number of the value of the conversational macro execution control variable 1 (#8500). The value of the conversational macro execution control variable 1 (#8500) when turning on the power is set by parameter (No.8536). However, when the parameter (No.8536) is ”0”, the conversational macro body cannot be started up.

If a conversational macro program having a program number specified with conversational macro execution control variable #8500 has not been compiled, the conversational macro function executes no program resulting in a PS11 ‘3 IMPROPER NC–ADDRESS alarm.

(2) Stopping the conversational macro

The conversational macro cannot be stopped by such as reset, single block, feed hold. However, the conversational macro can be stopped by either setting the parameter (No.8536) to ”0” or by setting the conversational macro execution control variable 1 (#8500) to 0. Further, it is possible to end the display of the conversational macro screen and return to the screen which was displayed before selecting the conversational macro screen by pressing the software key on the left edge.

AUXILIARY MACRO FUNCTION

The auxiliary macro function is executed at an execution level the same as the conversational macro function.

The following functions can be executed in this function.

 Macro command (definition of variable, replacement, addition type

calculation, branching, repetition)

 Read/write of common variables  Startup of conversational macro body  Simple call (G65, M98)  Read/write of P–CODE exclusive variables  Data reading of A/D converter  Conversational window function  Reading of relative coordinates  Reading of cutting time and cutting distance, and preset  Torque limit override control  RS–232–C control

(1) Starting up the auxiliary macro program

The auxiliary macro program to be started up is the program number of the value of the conversational macro execution control variable 2 (#8600). The value of the conversational macro execution control variable 2 (#8600) when turning on the power is set by parameter (No.8537). However, when the parameter (No.8537) is ”0”, the auxiliary macro program cannot be started up.

(2) Stopping the auxiliary macro program

The auxiliary macro program cannot be stopped by such as reset, single block, feed hold. However, the auxiliary macro program can be stopped by either setting the parameter (No.8537) to ”0” or by setting the conversational macro execution control variable 2 (#8600) to 0.

(3) Setting the auxiliary macro execution cycle

The auxiliary macro executes one block of a P–CODE program approximately every 32 ms. This execution cycle can be changed using parameter No.7045, thus enabling faster execution of the auxiliary macro.

Note

The faster the auxiliary macro executes the program, the longer it takes for the program to be displayed on the CNC screen.

The parameter value N indicates the number of blocks (N+1) that can be executed every 32 ms. Examples follow.

The larger the value of N, the longer the delay in displaying the program on the CNC screen.

(4) Note

In an auxiliary macro program, do not write data into system common variables (custom–macro common variables) frequently. Read common variables once, then write data into them as required. Alternatively , use variables dedicated to the macro compiler (P–code exclusive variables) to write data into the common variables when it is necessary to write data into the variables frequently.

Character Coordinate System

In the conversational macro function the coordinate system using character display and cursor display is called the character coordinate system. The character coordinate system sets left/right direction as X coordinate and up/down direction as Y coordinate. In the 9”CRT, the X coordinate is 0 to 39 from left to right, and Y coordinate is 0 to 16 from top to bottom; in the 14” CRT, X coordinate is 0 to 73 from left to right and Y coordinate is 0 to 26 from top to bottom.

Further, display commands which exceed these ranges are ignored. 1 unit is 1 character. However, the following sections cannot be displayed because they are used by the system. In 9” CRT, the 0 line ON display line, 12th line warning message line, 13, 14th line data input line, 15th status display line sections; in the 14” CRT 0, lst ON display line, 21st warning message line, 22nd data input line, 23rd status display line, 24th, 25th, 26th line software key frame sections.

Note

It is possible to write to a location to be used by system, but once a character is displayed when set to a different screen, there are cases that the character remains on the screen.

In conversational macro function, the coordinate system using a graphic display is called graphic coordinate system. The graphic coordinate system sets left/right direction as X coordinate and up/down direction as Y coordinate. The X coordinate is –297 to 297 from left to right, and the Y coordinate is –216 to 216 from top to bottom. Namely , the screen center becomes (X, Y) = (0, 0).

Conversational Macro P–CODE Common V ariables

The local variables to be used by the conversational macro function P–CODE program are different from the normal local variables to be used by normal NC macro. This local variable can be displayed after normal macro variables by setting parameter (No. 8502 #1, #4).

In the auxiliary conversational macro function P–CODE program local variables cannot be used.

Note

Local variables are enabled only in the various programmes. If program end is executed by M99 is initialized.

Common variables to be used by conversa–tional macro P–CODE program can be selected by parameter (No. 8503) as to whether they are the same or different as those used by normal NC macro. However, these common variables are the same as common variables used by automatic operation P–CODE macro.

Conversational Macro Special Variables (#30000–)

Example

Conversational macro special variables can be used with a P–CODE program.

An arbitrary number of conversational macro special variables starting with #30000 can be used.

To specify the variable format, the parameter (No. 8509, EVF2) allows the user to select floating–point format as used for general macro variables or fixed–point format.

Parameter No. 8509

EVF2=0 : Floating–point format EVF2=1 : Fixed–point format

The usable number of conversational macro special variables is the number set in parameter No. 8549 multiplied by n. When zero is set in parameter No. 8549, no conversational macro special variable can be used.

For floating–point format, n=40 For fixed–point format, n=100.

When EVF2=0 for floating–point format

Parameter No. 8549=1

#30000 to #30039

Parameter No. 8549=2

#30000 to #30079

When EVF2=1 for fixed–point format

Parameter No. 8549=1

#30000 to #30099

Parameter No. 8549=1

#30000 to #30199

Notes

1 When fixed–point format is used, a value from –32768 to +32767 can be set in a conversational

macro special variable. A fractional part, if any, is rounded before the value is stored in fixed–point format. If a variable in fixed–point format appears in an expression, the variable is evaluated after being converted to floating–point format.

2 The maximum number of usable conversational macro special variables depends on the tape

memory size. When the length of tape memory is 160 m or shorter: Maximum value of parameter

No. 8549=64

When the length of tape memory is 320 m or longer: Maximum value of parameter

No. 8549=100

The length of tape memory corresponding to the value of 1 set in parameter No. 8549 is 0.8 m. 3 The values of conversational macro special variables are preserved even if power is turned of f. 4 If the value of parameter No. 8549 is changed, power needs to be turn on again. 5 Conversational macro special variables are displayed on the macro variable display screen

(SETTING), and can be entered through MDI. 6 When the value of parameter EVF2 is 1(fixed–point format), <Null> can not be used.

Example

Expanded conversational macro exclusive variables starting from #40000 can be arbitarily used. This variable can be selected to be floating decimal point format variable the same as normal macro variable, or to be fixed decimal point format variable by parameter specification (parameter No. 8509, EVF).

Parameter No. 8509

EVF=0 : Floating decimal point format EVF=1 : Fixed decimal point format

In the same manner as conversational macro exclusive variables (#30000–), the n multiple of the numerical value specified by parameter No. 8550 becomes the number of expanded conversational macro exclusive variables which can be used. When parameter number 8550 is 0, the expanded conversational macro exclusive variable cannot be used.

For the value of n, n=10 when floating decimal point format, and n=30 when fixed decimal point format.

Caution

(1) When fixed decimal point format, the value which can be set to this

variable is –32768 – 32767. The figures after the decimal point are rounded off and it is memorized in fixed decimal point format. Further, when the variable in this fixed decimal point format appears in <format> it is converted to floating decimal point format and evaluated.

(2) The maximum expanded macro exclusive variables which can be

used depends on the capacity of tape storage memory. Tape storage memory 80m: Expanded conversational macro cannot be used Part program storage memory 160m: Max. value of parameter No.8550=500 Part program storage memory 320m: Max. value of parameter No.8550=1000 Part program storage memory more than 640m: Max. value of parameter No.8550=1970 The relationship between value of parameter 8550 and part program storage length is as follows. Approx. 0.2m used for each value 1 of parameter No. 8550.

(3 ) The expanded macro exclusive variable keeps its value even if power

is cut.

(4) If value of parameter No. 8550 is changed, it is necessary to turn on

power again.

(1) Conversational macro execution control variable 1 (#8500)

If the conversational macro body is started up, it executes the conversational macro program of the value of #8500 as program number. However, the value of #8500 when turning on the power is the value of the parameter (No. 8536). Control can be transferred to other conversational macro programs by rewriting the value of #8500. If the value of #8500 is rewritten, after execution finishes of the currently executing conversational macro program, the character screen and graphic screen are deleted, and the conversational macro program of the value of #8500 as program number is executed. If the value of #8500 is not rewritten, the same conversational macro program continues to be executed. At this time, the character screen and graphic screen are not deleted.

(2) Conversational macro start control function 1 (#8501)

The conversational macro body can be started up by setting the conversational macro start control variable (#8510) to “1”. The conversational macro body can also be ended by setting the conversational macro start control variable 1 to “0”.

(3) Conversational macro execution control variable 2

If the conversational execution control macro is started up, it executes the auxiliary macro program of the value of #8600 as the program number. However, the value of #8600 when turning on the power is the value of the parameter (No. 8537). Control can be transferred to other auxiliary macro programs by rewriting the value of #8600. If the value of #8600 is rewritten, after execution finishes of the currently executing auxiliary macro program, the auxiliary macro program to set the value of #8600 as program number is executed. If the value of #8600 is not rewritten, the same auxiliary macro program continues to be executed.

(6) Decimal point specification of every address in block writing

The number of digits after under the decimal point of every address can be specified. With this specification, the contents of the variable number which was specified to #8523 becomes the number of digits after the decimal point of address A, and it is possible to determine the number of digits after the decimal point of every address, as shown below.

#8523=501 ; #501 is the number of digits after the decimal point of address A #502 is the number of digits after the decimal point of address B

: #525 is the number of digits after the decimal point of address Y #526 is the number of digits after the decimal point of address Z

Specify <blank> or 0–7 for the number of digits after the decimal point. In the case of <blank>, it is considered that no decimal point exists in the address.

Example:

If address code=A, number=1.2345678

Decimal point specification = <blank> A1 = 0 A1. = 1 A1.2 = 2 A1.23 = 3 A1.235

The block of block No.3 of program O0004 is deleted, if you execute to the above instruction.

(8) Special cases

A block constructed from a word formed by the combination of address+number” and EOB is the usual processing unit in this function described above. Therefore, it is impossible to show the case of block delete instruction without a number on to conversational at

(9) Reading the specified character–type block (G328)

This control code converts every character of the specified block to

a decimal ASCII code and puts them into the specified variable area,

even if non–word–type data is specified in the block. Control

commands (WHILE, IF , etc.) and functions (SIN, COS, FUP , etc.) are

represented with special codes.

(10)Writing the specified character–type block (G329)

This control code allows program data to be written to a specified area

in character units even if non–word–type data is specified. First,

define the program data in the macro variable area with ASCII codes.

Then, execute this control code to write it to the specified area.

2) #8602=0 occurs when turning on the power.

(2) Control code details

1) Rapid traverse command (G340)

G340 Xxxx ; Performs rapid traverse shift command to PMC control axis. For the shift amount, incremental shift amount is always commanded by address X.

2) Cutting feed command (G341) G341 Xxxx Ffff ;

Performs cutting feed shift command to PMC control axis. For the shift amount, incremental shift amount is always commanded by address X. The feed rate is commanded by address F.

3) Dwell command (G344) G344 Xxxx ;

Performs dwell command to PMC control axis. The dwell amount is commanded by address X.

4) Reference point return command (G345) G345 ;

Performs reference point reutrn command to PMC control axis.

5) Auxiliary function command (G346) G346 Mmm ;

Performs auxiliary function command for PMC control interface. The auxiliary control code is commanded by address M.

6) Status signal reading command (G348) G348 Pppp ;

Reads the status signal of the pertinent PMC axis control interface to the variable number specified by address P.

2. RSTx (reset signal) Resets axis control by PMC. Simultaneously, disables all the commands for which buffering is performed.

3. STPx (axis control temporary stop signal) Stops the axis controlled by PMC. The stopped operation restarts if this signal is set to LOW.

4. SBKx (block stop signal) During execution of commands from PMC, if this signal is set to HIGH, stops axis control when the currently executing block has finished. If set to LOW, executes the command on which buffering has been performed.

5. MSBKx (block stop prohibit signal) SBK becomes enabled when this signal is HIGH.

6. FINnX (auxiliary function complete signal) If this signal is returned, the auxiliary function ends and proceeds to the next command block. This signal cannot be written. (Can not be controlled with conversational macro.)

4. CONVERSATIONAL MACRO FUNCTION

change command is performed. It is set to 100% when turning on the power.

(3 ) Caution

1) Command buffering

Buffering of command block is performed on CNC side in order to continuously carry out multiple commands in the axis control function by PMC. Namely, even if one block is being executed, if there is a vacancy in CNC buffer it is possible to perform the next command. However, note that when there is no vacancy in CNC buffer, the previous block command completes until a vacancy occurs in the buffer because wait state occurs inside the command. As commands are stored in the buffer when G3** is executed, (1) PMCAx described on the previous page is not needed.

2) Auxiliary command function

Commanding an auxiliary function is possible by G346, but the auxiliary function complete signal FINnX cannot be controlled in the conversational macro. Control it by the PMC.

3) Conflict of axis control functions by original PMC

Never perform commands from both the PMC and this function for the same PMC controlaxis. For the PMC control axis to be used by this function, control in the PMC by only the auxiliary function complete signal ”FINnX”.

4) Data units

Command the shift amount to be commanded by address X (dwell amount), and feed rate to be commanded by address F in the minimum setting units.

Conversion value of load current of NC control axis to voltage

A/D conversion data is data in which the –10V to +10V inputted to the NC A/D converter has been converted to a 0 to +255 digital value.

The digital value becomes the value of the ratio –10V to 0, 0V to 128, +10V to 255.

The relationship between AC servo motor load current and calculated voltage of the NC control axis is as follows. Voltage indicates load which shows a positive voltage, but if the rotation direction of the AC servo motor changes, a negative voltage will be inputted. In that case, the rating and converted digital value change to the value shown inside ( ).

Further, the information of whether or not the read operation to #8996 ended normally will be set. (0 if normal end, –1 if abnormal end)

Example:

 Alarm information

1) P/S alarm (foreground) monitoring #8997=1 ; Alarm system information I.D. is 1 #500=#8999 ; Incorporates alarm information #500=#500AND2 ; IF [500EQ0] GOTO 90 ;

Distinguishes if P.S alarm status #8997=30 ; P/S alarm system information I.D. is 30 #500=#8999 ; Incorporates P.S alarm number #501=#8996 ; Sets function execution results N90 M99 ;

If above is set, the P/S alarm number is set to #500. Further, the information of whether the window function in #501 has executed normally or not is set.

2) Monitoring axis type OT alarm (Monitoring stored stroke limit 1 of plus direction of control 1st axis) #8997=11 ; Axis type OT alarm flag 1 I.D. is 11 #8997=1 ; Axis number #500=#8999 ; (Incorporates I.D. number 11 contents) #500=#500AND1 ; #501=#8996 ; (Sets execution results of function) N90 M99 ;

If (above) is set, 1 is set to #500 when there is stored stroke limit 1 prohibited area. Further, the information of whether the window function in #501 has executed normally or not is set.

Machining parts total number #8997=200 ;(Machining parts total number I.D. is 200) #500=#8999 ; #501=#8996 ; (Sets execution results of function)

Complete code 0: Normal end –1: Abnormal end

Contents

Example:

Relative coordinate value of 1st axis is read as –123456 to #500 if #8997=500 ; #8998=1; (Incorporates contents of 1st axis) #500=#8999; is set when –123.456

The value which will be read by #8999 is <Vacant> when a value outside

1–8 is specified to #8998.

2) For #8998, 0 is set when turning on the power.

(2) Preset of relative coordinate value

The relative coordinate value can be freely preset by G360 Aa Qq. The axis number is set in address A. A1 to 8 Set the relative coordinate you desire to preset to address Q. Q–999999999 to 999999999 The relative coordinate value can be preset by executing this control code.

Example:

When you desire to preset the relative coordinate value of 1st axis to –123.45 G360 A1 Q–123450 ;

Caution

Address Function

1) G360 command is ignored when a value other than 1 to 8 is specified to address A, or when A is not specified.

2) The units of address Q are the minimum setting units of the specified axis.

The address function is that which returns the PMC address or NC parameter contents as a functional value. However, the address function cannot be described to the left side of the calculation because it cannot be written.
