PROGRAMMING
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. A batch handling of these
programs of different characters may cause 1 quicker battery
consumption, or spoil the custom macro in case of misoperation.
T o solve a problem, this function will convert the custom macro prepared
by a machine tool builders into an execution format, register it to the ROM
module, and enables it to be executed.
(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 battery consumption and
prevents custom macro damage through misoperation. This will
improve the reliability.
(3 ) Since the registered program is not indicated on the program display,
the machine tool builder’s knowhow can be protected.
(4) Since the custom macro is registered in the ROM, the program edit
memory can effectively be used.
(5 ) The user can call the macro with an easy call procedure without being
conscious of the registered program. On the program edit memory,
custom macros can be prepared and executed in the standard manner.
(6) The user can confirm the operation using RAM module before
making a ROM. (excluding Series 21–B)
(7) Conversational macro function can compile machine tool builders
original screen.

The P-CODE loader function transfers files in Motorola format S, which
is a ROM format, to the RAM module installed in the Series 16/18-A or
the Series 16-TT A (tool posts 1 and 2). The files are created by the macro
compiler for the FANUC SYSTEM P-MODEL G (referred to hereafter
as the P-G) or a personal computer (referred to hereafter as the PC). The
P-CODE loader function also operates the macro executor in the RAM.
The RS-232C interface is used to connect the Series 16/18–A to the P-G
or PC.

The communication parameters for transferring the file in the ROM
format (referred to below as loading) depend on the parameters of the
Series 16/18–A. The parameters must be set before loading.
2.1.6.1
Operation
If the
CAN
and
PROG
keys are pressed simultaneously on the MDI, and
the power to the Series 16/18–A is turned off, this function displays the
data transfer screen (loading screen). For the Series 16/18-TTA, the
function displays the data transfer selection screen. When tool post 1 or
2 is selected on the selection screen, the loading screen is displayed. Data
can only be transferred while the loading screen is displayed.
Issue a data transfer command in the P-G or PC. For a description of the
transfer commands and other details, refer to the specifications of the
FAPT Macro Compiler.
The function eliminates the need to store data on a ROM chip when
developing a macro program.
The P-CODE loader function is executed while a power-on sequence is
suspended. The functions of the CNC are disabled while the data transfer
selection screen or loading screen is displayed. The P-CODE loader
function requires an executor option and reader/punch control option.
(1) The communication parameters for loading depend on the
parameters of the Series 16/18–A. Specify parameters such as the
channels to be used and the baud rate before loading.
(2) Turn off the power to the Series 16 and install a RAM module instead
of the ROM module for custom macros. In Series 16/18-TT A, install
the RAM module(s) in tool post 1 and/or tool post 2. Connect the
Series 16/18 to the P-G or PC via the RS-232C interface.
(3) Turn on the power to the Series 16/18 while simultaneously pressing
the
CAN
and
PROG
keys on the MDI. Hold down the CAN and
PROG keys until the title, MACRO COMPILER/EXECUTOR
P-CODE LOADER is displayed.

MACRO EXECUTOR CONTROLS
The macro executor controls the execution of the P-CODE program
created by the macro compiler.
The P-CODE program (execution macro) stored in the ROM can be called
and executed by specifying G, M, T or original code set by parameter
during compilation in the user program.
Custom macros can be created and executed in the user program,
independently of 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.
Moreover, if a minus value is set to a parameter for macro call by G code,
modal call of P-CODE program can be done by corresponding G code.

(2 ) Difference between Subprogram Call (T, M) and Macro Call (G, M)
Argument designation can be made in macro call. In subprogram call,

however, argument designation is not possible without T code, special
code and call code.
(b) In subprogram call, after execution of another command than T-
or M-code, it will branch to a subprogram. In macro call,
however, it will branch off without doing anything.
(c) In subprogram call, single block stop is made when another

Calling a Macro Using a T Code
By setting compile parameter TMACC(No.9005#7) to 1, program of
No.9008 registered to ROM can be called macros by specifying a T code
in a user program.
All addresses specified in this block are used as arguments except that the
T code is transferred to #27, values for address P and L are transferred to
#16 and #12, respectively. Also G codes are transferred to variables #28
to #32 for each group.
Be sure that addresses shall be those availabe for CNC and the significant
digits are those specified by the CNC.
Variable Data to be transferred

NOTE
G codes are assigned to variables #28 to #32 in ascending

a G code of G code group 01 exists, G80 may be generated
and assigned to #28 to #32.

Calling Macros with a G Code by Specifying the Range
The code specified by compilation parameters 9045 to 9047 can be used
to call the programs registered in ROM.
Specifying call arguments is the same as calling macros with G code
(3.1.4).
Specify the following for parameters 9045 to 9047:
Parameter 9045 : G code to start calling
Parameter 9046 : Number of P-CODE programs
Parameter 9047 : Number of the program to be called first
For example, suppose programs are compiled with 200 specified for
parameter 9045, 100 specified for parameter 9046, and 1000 specified for
parameter 9047. When G200 to G299 are specified, 100 programs from
O1000 to O1099 compiled on the ROM can be called.
NOTE
1
Specifying call arguments is the same as calling macros with the
G code specified by compilation parameters 9013 to 9022.
2 Continuous-state calling cannot be specified.
3 When the G code specified with compilation parameters 9013 to
9022 is specified, the specified parameters 9013 to 9022 are
effective.
Parameter 9013 = 250
Parameter 9045 = 200
Parameter 9046 = 100
Parameter 9047 = 1000
When G250 is issued with the settings above, program O9010 is
called.
3.1.10
Function for Calling Macros with an Axis Address
Axis address commands enable calling macros.
When AX1CL to AC8CL of compilation parameter 9005#0 to #3,
9008#0 to #3 are set to 1, the programs registered to ROM can be called
by the axis address command.
The program number to be called is selected by compile parameter
AXCLS (No. 9005#4) as follows:
AXCLS 1 : The program number to be called depends on a specified
axis:
Program O9031 is called when 1st axis is specified.
Program O9032 is called when 2nd axis is specified.
::
Program O9038 is called when 8th axis is specified.
0: Always program O9009 is called irrespective of specified
axes.
In this case, all the addresses in the block specified axis address are passed
for use as arguments. However, the specified axis address is passed to
variable 27. Addresses P and L are passed to variable 16 and 12,
respectively, for use as arguments. Up to five G codes in each G code
group are passed to variables 28 to 32 starting from the group with the
lowest number. When a G code of G code group 01 exists, G80 may be
generated and assigned to #28 to #32.

When G code system A is used in the lathe system (T/TT), whether the
axis addresses are called with an absolute or incremental command are
informed to variable 33.

#27 Specified axis address (1st to 8th)
#28 Specified G code
#29 Specified G code
#30 Specified G code

#33 Vacant for absolute address
1.0 for incremental address
If the following are specified when a 4th-axis address is B, for example:
G91G28B1.234567X123.4567;
The settings are passed to variables as follows:
123.456 to variable #24
1.234 to variable #27
28.0 to variable #28
91.0 to variable #29
Other variables: Null
The addresses transferred as arguments specified in a block used to call
a macro make changes modal information of the CNC when calling the
macro. In the above example, the CNC model of absolute/incremental
command changes to G91 (incremental command) when a macro is
called.
In the lathe system, for G code system A, and when a 2nd-axis address is
Z (absolute) or W (incremental), the settings are passed to variables as
follows:
Variable #27 = 100.0, variable #33 = <null> for Z100.;
Variable #27 = 100.0, variable #33 = 1.0 for W100.;
NOTE
The addresses those can be used and the range of the

LIMITATION FOR EXECUTION MACRO
Source program of execution macro should be programmed in the same
way as for custom macro. But, there are some limits for execution.
(1) Macro call
Macro call from an execution macro is executed with ”G65” as the
custom macro . In the execution macro , since it is a macro program
itself to be called from the user program with G (M, T) code or
specified code, it is impossible to use a G
CODE call, etc. from
execution macro.
G65 P (Program No.) L (Number of repetition) <Argument
specification> ;
(2) Argument specification
Argument specification is the same as the
custom macro.
(3) Variable
Expression, argument, etc. of variables are the same as those of the
Custom macro.
NOTE
Common variables referred by a P–CODE program and
Common variables referred by user program are completely
different.
Refer to ”5.3 Common variable”.
(a) P–CODE variable (#10000 – )
Any number of 100 unit of P-CODE exclusive variables starting
from #10000 can be used.
Since it can be used from execution, it is considered as extension
of common variable #500.
However, execution macro cannot refer to P-CODE variable in
arrangement type.
For details, refer to ”5.4 P-CODE exclusive variable”.
(4) Operation command
Operation commands can be used as with the custom macro.
(5) Control command
Both divergence and repetition commands can be used .
IF <Conditional expression> GOTO n;
WHILE <Conditional expression> DO m;
END m;(m=1,2,3)
(6) Modal call from execution macro
Modal call cannot be made.
(7) Macro and subprogram multiplexity in execution macro.
Separately from the user program multiplexity, 4-stack nesting of
macro program, and 4-stack nesting of subprogram are possible on
the execution macro.
(8) Cautions
(a)
Separate registration of a program cannot be made. Max. 400
programs can be registered to the ROM.
(b) In one program, limit the sequence number used for branch
destination (GOTO) to 200. In one program, the same sequence
No. cannot be designated for others.
32
Page 41
B–61803E–1/07
PROGRAMMING
3. EXECUTION MACRO
(c) One block can accept designation of only one sequence number .
Except the program No. ”0” and the optional block skip ”/”,
designate a sequence No. at the block head.
(d) In T series multiple repetitive canned cycle cannot be executed
in the P-CODE program. In case a program including a multiple
repetitive canned cycle is registered and executed, the function
cannot be guaranteed.
(e) In T series programming through direct drawing dimensions
programming cannot be made in the P-CODE program.
In case a program made through direct drawing dimension
input is registered and executed the function cannot be
guaranteed.

CONVERSATIONAL MACRO
Part program storage memory
Main program
The conversational macro function executes a program compiled by the
macro compiler independently of the normal NC part program. This
function basically is not affected by operation modes of NC .
Accordingly, it works concurrently with the NC part program under
execution independently even during the memory operation.
NOTE
The execution of the conversational macro function is
processed at a lower level than that of the CNC operation
internally. Therefore, the execution of the conversational
macro function will not affect the processing speed of the
CNC operation, but the processing speed of the
conversational macro function may become slow while the
CNC operation is ON.

AND AUXILIARY MACRO FUNCTION
The conversational macro function is executed only when the
conversational screen is selected with the function key
The conversational macro function executes its macro program whose
program No. is the value of the conversational macro execution control
variable #8500. The value of the conversational macro execution control
variable #8500 is to be set with the parameter No. 9038 at compiling. The
conversational macro function will not be executed when there is not a
conversational macro program compiled whose program No. is the value
of the conversational ma ro execution control variable #8500.
The conversational macro program, as well as NC part program, consists
of macro sentences and NC sentences (specific G code commands).
The conversational macro program can describe all the macro statements
used for the custom macro. And all the system variables and common
variables which can be referred to in the P-CODE program can be read and
written. But the conversational macro program has no local variables
except for #1 to #99. They are used to refer an array type P-CODE
variables #10000 ’s. Also, P-CODE variables are prepared for the
conversational macro control.

.
It is impossible to execute the NC part program statement with the NC
statement of the conversational macro program. They will be ignored
though commnded. It is impossible to use any codes except the screen
display codes and the execution control codes described in the following
sections. And be sure that the NC statement of the conversational macro
program have the addresses whose meanings and usage are different from
those of the NC part program statement.
The CUSTOM screen started by the conversational macro program is
under the same control as the other screens (POS screen, etc.). Therefore,
finishing of the CUSTOM screen is necessary for changing over from one
screen to another. Decide the timing to finish when executing M99 of the
main program. Be careful about the condition of the conversational
macro program, because if it is of a bad program example as shown below ,
it will be impossible to change the screen to another and HANG-UP

AUXILIARY MACRO FUNCTION
The auxiliary macro is always executed regardless of the selection screen
while the conversational macro function is executed only when the
CUSTOM
conversational macro screen is selected in the function
.
The auxiliary macro function executes the auxiliary macro program with
the program number set by parameter 9030 on compiling.
If parameter 9039 is equal to 0 or the auxiliary macro with a set program
number has not been compiled, no auxiliary macro function is executed.
Major differences between the conversation macro and auxiliary macro
functions are as in the following:
1) Auxiliary macro function is always executed regardless of the screen
being displayed.
2) No screen display control code can be used in the auxiliary macro
function. G202, G240, G242, G243, G01, G02, G03
3) No variables for controlling and cursor can be used in the auxiliary
macro function.
#8501-#8509
4) The conversational macro function can control the program number
executed by conversational macro execution control variable #8500.
On the other hand, the auxiliary macro function always executes the
program of the program number set by parameter 9039 on compiling.
NOTE
1 Switching to another screen is disabled while an auxiliary
macro is controlling the reader/punch interface.
2 A larger auxiliary macro (requiring a longer time to execute)
causes screen drawing to become slower.
The conversation macro function and auxiliary macro function are
executed at the same execution level (lower level).
The execution processing is as shown in the following when both the
conversation macro function and auxiliary macro function are
specified.
1) CUSTOM screen selected
The auxiliary macro execution and conversation macro executed are
repeated in this order.
2) Screen other than CUSTOM screen
A compilation parameter makes it possible to display CUSTOM
screen at power on.

EXECUTION CONTROL CODE
The following control codes are prepared for execution control.
M98 : Subprogram call
M99 : Subprogram end
(1) Subprogram call (M98)
M98 Pp ;
A macro subprogram specified by address P is called. Frequency of
calling the macro subprogram shall be up to quadruple.
(2) Subprogram end (M99)
M99 Pp ;
When command is done in the c lled subprogram, the calling program will
be restored. When the address P is specified, the block of the sequence
No. specified at P of the calling program will be restored.
Command M99 without fail at the end of the main program. The
command of M99 in the main program is explained below.
When M99 is commanded in the main program, execution of the
conversational macro function is finished once.
Once execution of the conversational macro function is started, the screen
will not change over to another though the function key is depressed until
execution of the conversational macro function ends at M99.
Accordingly, it is necessary to command M99 at the end of the main
program.
When the function key is depressed during the execution of the
conversational macro program, both character display and graphic
display will be erased after the conversational macro program ends, and
CUSTOM
a corresponding screen will take place. When the function key
is
depressed again, the execution of the conversational macro program will
be started according to the value of the conversational macro execution
control variable #8500. At this time, the program will be executed from
the beginning regardless of the command of the address P in block of
M99.
When M99 is executed, the value of the conversational macro execution
control variable #8500 will be checked. When the value of #8500 is
rewritten, both character display and graphic display will be erased and
the control will be transferred to a new conversational macro program.
If not, neither the character display nor the graphic display will be erased,
and execution of the same conversational macro program will be
repeated. In this case, when the address P is commanded, execution will
be started at the block of the sequence No. specified at P.
Once M99 is executed, the graphic display will not be output on th screen
until the graphic screen is erased next. Consequently, when the same
conversational macro program is still executed, the second and the
following graphic displays will not be output on the screen When you
want to redisplay the graphic display in 1 conversational macro program,
command the graphic screen to be erased once.

NOTES
The conversational macro and auxiliary macro must be programmed so
that M99 of the main program is executed.
The conversational macro, auxiliary macro and standard CNC display
(POS screen, etc.) are executed on the same level. If a wait is programmed
in any macro not having M99, the following occurs:
D If the wait is executed by the conversational macro, the auxiliary
macro is not executed.
D If the wait is executed by the auxiliary macro, the conversational
macro is not executed. The CNC display (POS screen, etc.) is not
updated.
When common variables are used by an auxiliary macro (or
conversational macro) and execution macro, the same variable must not
be written to as a flag. An execution macro has higher priority than an
auxiliary macro (or conversational macro). So, while an auxiliary macro
(conversational macro) is writing to a variable, an execution macro may
interrupt and write to that variable.
In such a case, once writing to the variable by the execution macro ends,
the remaining write processing by the auxiliary macro (or conversational
macro) is completed. So, the value written by the execution macro may
be overwritten by the auxiliary macro (or conversational macro).
Example: Bit 0 of the #100 value is used as an execution macro flag, while
bit 1 of #100 is used as an auxiliary macro flag
To set bit 0 to ON: #100 = 100 OR 1
To set bit 1 to ON: #100 = 100 OR 2
Execution macro
#100=#100 OR 1
Auxiliary macro
Execution macro
Auxiliary macro
#100=#100 OR 2
The value of #100, read at the start of auxiliary macro processing, is
written to #100 after auxiliary macro processing ends. So, a value written
by execution macro processing may be lost.

It is possible to use optional quantity of the P-CODE variables starting
with #10000 on 100-pc. basis.
A 100 times as many as the numerical value preset on the compiling
parameter No. 9037 will be the usable quantity of P-CODE variables.
When the value on the parameter No. 9037 is 0, P-CODE exclusive
variables are not usable.
The upper limit of the P-CODE variables is as follows.
10000 + (Value of Compiling Parameter No. 9037) 100–1
The lower limit of the P-CODE variables is 10000. For example, the
P-CODE variables can be used as follows:
#10000 to #10099 when the value of parameter No. 9037 is 1
#10000 to #10199 when the value of Parameter No. 9037 is 2
NOTE
1 For P-CODE variables, about 1.63 meter of part program
memory is consumed per 100 pieces of variables when part
program storage is 20 to 80m. The more P–CODE are
used, the more part program memory decreases. The
maximum no. of the usable P-CODE variables depends on
the capacity of the part program memory.
Part program storage memory 10 m:
Parameter on compiling No. 9037 = 6
Part program storage memory 20 m:
Parameter on compiling No. 9037 = 12
Part program storage memory 40 m:
Parameter on compiling No. 9037 = 25
Part program storage memory 80 m:
Parameter on compiling No. 9037 = 51
Part program storage memory 160 m - 1280 m:
Parameter on compiling No. 9037 = 60
In Series 16-B/18-B, part program storage memory is not
used. (Parameter no. 9037 needs to be set).
When compilation parameter no. 9007#7 EXT=1, the no.
of P-CODE variables is the above value–1.
For the 21-TB, approximately 1.63 meters of tape is
required to store each 100 P-CODE variables, even
when the tape length is 160 meters.
For the 21-MB, whether part program memory is used
varies with the CNC system software series.
- DDA1 series : Part program memory is not used.
- D201 series : Part program memory is used.
2 The P–CODE variables still maintain their values after the
power is turned off.
3 Before executing the conversational macro with the
complied ROM module loaded, erase all the programs in the
part program storage memory once.
(Turn on the power while pushing key with the setting
DELETE
(PWE = 1).)
With this operation all the conversational macro functions
will be initialized to be ”blank”.

The variables of the expanded P-CODE which start from #20000 can be
used for the optional number, if the capacity of tape memory is 160m to
1280m. This variable can be selected for numbers with floating decimal
points, the same as the usual common variable or for numbers with the
integer type by parameter (parameter No. 9002#3 EVF) specification.
Parameter No. 9002#3
EVF= 0: floating decimal point type
EVF= 1: the integer type
N times the number set paramater No.9044 is the number of the usuable
variables for the P-CODE the same as the exclusive variables for the
P-CODE (#10000 ---). The P-CODE variables cannnot be used, if
parameter No. 9044 is 0.
The number of n is 12 with the floating decimal point type, and is 30 with
the integer type.
EVF=0: in the case of the floating decimal point type
#20000 to #20011 if parameter No. 9044 equals 1
#20000 to #20023 if parameter No. 9044 equals 2
EVF=1: in the case of the integer type
#20000 to #20029 if parameter No.9044 equals 1
#20000 to #20059 if parameter No.9044 equals 2
In the case of the integer type, one of -32768 to 32767 can be set. Digits
under the decimal point are rounded off when a value is substituted to the
left side of the substitution statement.
Furthermore, this variables is evaluated after converted into the
floatingdecimal point type, if this varables occurs in expression.
About a 0.21 meter of part program memory is used per set (number of
parameter No. 9044) of the variables of the expanded P-CODE.
The part program memory being used is displayed on the program library
screen. The maximum number of P-CODE variables depends on the
capacity of the part program memory.
Part program memory 160m: Parameter No. 9044=819
Part program memory 320m: Parameter No. 9044=1638
Part program memory 640m (EVF=0): Parameter No. 9044=3276
Part program memory 640m (EVF=1): Parameter No. 9044=2184
Part program memory 1280m (EVF=0): Parameter No. 9044=5461
Part program memory 1280m (EVF=1): Parameter No. 9044=2184
NOTE
For Series 20, Series 21, expanded P-CODE (#2000 -)

In this section, the terms twelve–soft–key type and seven–soft–key type
represent the following display units:
Twelve–soft–key type: Those display units with twelve (10 + 2) soft
keys (such as the 14” CRT, 10” LCD, 9.5”
LCD, and 10.4” LCD units)
Seven–soft–key type: Those display units with seven (5 + 2) soft keys
(such as the 9” CRT, 8.4” LCD, 9” PDP, and
7.2” LCD units)
The coordinates system used for character display and cursor display in
the conversational macro program is called the character coordinates
system.
The coordinate system used for graphic display in the conversational
macro program is called the graphic coordinate system.
(1) Display unit with seven soft keys
The graphic coordinate system can be selected from the standard
mode and the high resolution mode. Select one of these by the
parameter HRGR (No.9003#2) in compiling. Select high-resolution
mode for Series 16 and Series 18.
As for the character coordinates system, the horizontal direction is X
coordinate and the vertical direction is Y coordinate. Specify the X
coordinates from 0 to 39 from left to right and the Y coordinates from
0 to 15 from top to bottom. Any command of display exceeding the
above range will be ignored. 1 unit is 1 character.
Since the 13th is used for the input section and the 14th is used for the
state display section, they cannot be specified. Furthermore, the soft
key frame section cannot be specified either.

displayed.
Those which you can command by enclosing with parentheses are the
alphabet, numbers, minus marks, and decimal points only.
b) Commandto display a character string by bounding with ”(*” and
”*)” by internal codes:
G243 (*46 41 4E 55 43*) ; ”FANUC” will be displayed.
G243 (*4E 43 4175 4356*) ; ”NC system” will be displayed.
Command with hexadecimal number. Divide the internal codes with
blanks. Take a space for 2 characters aside for hiragana and kanji. The
coordinates will be renewed when a character string is displayed.
For the character string, it is possible to specify up to maximum total 255
characters in 1 block. Count hiragana and kanji as 2 characters
respectively.
Also, it is possible to command the character code to display directly at
the address C

ADDRESS FUNCTIONS
The address functions are the functions to return the address of PMC or
the contents of the parameter as the function values. However, as the
address functions cannot be written, it is impossible to describe them on
the left side of an operation. Control code G310 is prepared for PMC
address writing.
The format of the address functions is as follows.
<Address><Address No.> or <Address><Address No.>.<Bit position>
(parameter cannot be used) or<Address><Address No.>.<Axis No.>
Address P indicates the parameter and the other addresses indicate PMC
addresses.
P100 returns the contents of the parameter No. 100 as function values
respectively.
Since the bit position cannot be specified for parameters, if it is required,
take the bit data using AND instruction.
Also, G100.1 returns the contents of the bit 1 of PMC address G100 ,and
G105 returns the contents of PMC address G105 as function values
respectively.
It is possible to describe <Address No.> and <Bit position>or<Axis No.>
with variables or
# [<Expression>] or [<Expression>], instead of numbering them with
numerical values directly.
For example, it is possible to describe as follows.
P#100
P#100.#101
G# [#100+1]
G [#100+1] .[[#100-1]/2]
The usable addresses are ”P” for parameter and X, Y, F, G, R, D,T,C, K
and A of PMC addresses.
Format conforms to that used for ladder diagram.
Refer to the operator’s manual for the detail of parameters and to the PMC
programming manual for details of the PMC addresses.
NOTE
Refer to the section titled ”PMC Address Write Control Code
(G310)” for writing data to the PMC addresses R,D,C, and
K.

READING AND WRITING A PMC ADDRESS
6. FUNCTIONS OF THE MACRO
PROGRAMMING
EXECUTOR
(1) PMC address write control
Data of one, two, or four bytes can be written when address L is
specified with control code G310.
G310 Dd Qq Lx;
G310 Rr Qq Lx;
G310 Cr Qq Lx;
G310 Kr Qq Lx;
These commands write the data indicated by address Q at the PMC
address indicated by address D, R, C, or K, a number of bytes at a time
as indicated by address L. The data cannot be specified in bits.
The write data indicated by address Q is rounded as follows: Decimal
places of 0.5 and over are counted as a whole number and the rest are
discarded. Then the data is expressed in binary form and written.
When the data is a negative value, it is handled and converted as two’s
complement.
When the following is specified, the data is written in the PMC data
area (D300 to D303) as shown in the table below:
#100 = –500.0;
G310 D300 Q#100 L4;
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
D300 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0
D301 1 1111110
D302 1 1111111
D303 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
In two’s complement, the decimal number –500 becomes FFFFFE0CH in
hexadecimal.)
When the specified data contains more bytes than that indicated by
address L, only the data of the length specified by address L is written.
This will not cause an error. (If L1 is specified in the example above,
the identical data is written only in D300.)
(2) PMC address read control
When a variable is indicated by address P with control code G310, the
PMC data can be read. Address L indicates that the data of one, two,
or four bytes is read at a time.
G310 Dd Pp Lx;
G310 Rr Pp Lx;
G310 Cr Pp Lx;
G310 Kr Pp Lx;
These commands read the data which starts from the PMC address
indicated by address D, R, C, K or A and whose length is indicated
in bytes by address L into the variable indicated by address P. The
read data is handled as binary data consisting of the specified number
of bytes, converted, and assigned to the variable.
If G310 D400 P101 L2; is specified when the PMC data area (D400
to D401) has the data shown below, –500.0 is input in #101.
Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

The address function can read data the specified number of bytes at
a time. However, the following must be noted: As the address
function handles and converts the read data as a signed value (in two’s
complement), the read data may be changed.
If the following is specified with the example shown above, –2.0 and
254.0 are read into #102 and #103 respectively.
G310 D401 P102 L1;
#103 = D401;

When address Q is specified, write control is executed. When
address P is specified, read control is executed. If both addresses
Q and P are specified, write control is executed.
2 Addresses other than D, R, C, K (X, Y , G, F...) cannot be specified.
3 With address L, 1, 2, or 4 can be specified. If another value is
specified, or if address L is omitted, the data is written or read the
specified number of bytes at a time.

READER PUNCHER INTERFACE CONTROL BY CONVERSATIONAL MACRO
PROGRAMMING
6. FUNCTIONS OF THE MACRO
EXECUTOR
6.4.1
Outline
The conversation macro function allows the reader/puncher interface to
be controlled.
The control is performed by combining the following four control codes.
When this function is used, always set the expansion function validity
(No. 9002.7, EXT1) to 1 in the parameter on compiling.
G330 → reader puncher interface open
G331 → reader puncher interface close
G335 → 1 byte read
G336 → Data transmit
G337 → input of macro variable
G338 → output of macro variable
Select either channel 1 or channel 2 as a circuit to be used by specification
on opening.
Channels 1 and 2 cannot be controlled simultaneously.
In addition, when the normal I/O function is commanded on the channel
which is being used in this function, operation is not proper if the channel,
where the input of NC program is being executed by the I/O function, is
opened.
Select one control method out of the three methods shown in the
following by specification on opening a circuit.
(1) User macro control
The reader puncher interface is opened in the bidirectional mode and
no output control of control codes (DC1 to DC4) can be carried out
by the macro executor.
Use the macro executor when creating your own protocol.
When overflow of the reception buffer is detected, send the
transmission stop/restart message to the target device by switching
ON/OFF the control signal ”RS”.
(2) Read control (DC1/DC3 automatic control)
The ”DC1” code is automatically sent on opening, thus requesting
the target device to transmit data.
The ”DC3” code is transmitted on closing.
In addition, when overflow of the reception buffer is detected, the
output of ”DC3” and ”DC1” is automatically controlled.
No control of data transmission (G336) can be performed when the
reader/puncher interface circuit is opened in the read control mode.
(End code = 8)
(3) Transmission control (DC2/DC4 automatic control)
The ”DC2” code is automatically on opening, thus requesting the
target device to transmit data.
The ”DC4” code is transmitted on closing.
The interruption and restart processing of transmission by the target
device using the ”DC3” and ”DC1” are also automatically carried out.

G335 Pp ; p : Reading variable number
Data 1 byte received through circuit is read into the variable area
specified.
The received data is stored in the reception buffer (128 bytes)
temporarily and is read one byte at a time by this control code.
When there is no reception data, end code 255 is sent.
If the reception buffer is nearly overflowing due to delay of reading
processing for the reception data, either of the following processing
is carried out according to the opening specification of control
method.
(a) In the case of user macro control
When overflow of the reception buffer is detected, the
transmission stop is requested to the target by the turning OFF of
control signal ”RS”.
Then, when there is an empty reception buffer area by reading,
the signal (RS) is turned ON, thus requesting the target device
to continue transmission.
(b) In the case of reading control (DC1/DC3 automatic control)
When overflow of the reception buffer is detected, the ”DC3”
code is output automatically , thus requesting the target device to
stop transmission.
Then, when there is an empty reception buffer area by reading,
the DC1” code is output, thus requesting the target device to
continue transmission.
(c) In the case of transmission control (DC2/DC4 automatic control)
When the circuit is opened in the transmission control mode, no
control of 1 byte reading is carried out (end code = 8).

However, the code output by address K is not the space but the null
code (no punching).
In the one-character command by address C, no code conversion
processing is carried out.
Use it when the code is output other than the control code (DC1 DC4) or ASCII/ISO code.

G337 Pp ;
p : the head variable number which mounts the macro variable
(omissible)
A macro variable data, which is input from reader puncher interface
that opened with the read control mode, is read and set it to the
correspondenting variable.
The tape format of macro variable data is as follows;
LF N_ P_ LF P_ LF %
Leader part
Start to input
Variable
number
Variable data
T ape end
Information before ”LF” which appears on the tape at first is all
disregarded.
The tape to the end (”EOR”) from the first ”LF” is analyzed as
significant information.
A section which is spaced with ”LF” and ”LF” into significant
information segments called a block, and one block shows one macro
variable data.
Address ”N” can be omitted. In this case, the variable number is
interpreted to be (the variable number of the preceding block) +1. If
”N” is omitted at the head block, the variable number is assumed to
be the one specified by address ”P” with instruction G337. Therefore,
a tape without ”N” is made out, and arbitrary variables are read by the
instruction of ”337” ” Pp”.
Address ”P” on the tape indicates the value of the variable and cannot
be omitted. ”LF” is specified after ”P” for value zero (#0) without
specifying the value.
LF N_ P LF
”LSK” or ”EDIT” goes on and off under the right of the screen if the

Extending the Function for Inputting and Outputting a Macro Variable
The conversational macro can input and output a macro variable via the
reader/punch interface. This function can be extended so that two or more
variable groups can be output at a time and the output data can be read into
another variable.
(1) Outputting macro variables
By adding address R to G338 described in (2) of Section 6.4.3, the
tape format of the variable data to be output can be controlled.
(Command format)
G338 Pp Qq Ff Zz Rr;
------------R0 : Standard format (Same as when R is not specified)
R1 : Variable numbers are not output.
R10 : At the end of the tape, % (EOR) is not output.
R11 : Variable numbers are not output. At the end of the tape,
% (EOR) is not output.
R20 : At the beginning of the tape, % (EOR) is not output.
R21 : V ariable numbers are not output. At the beginning of the
tape, % (EOR) is not output.
R30 : At the beginning and end of the tape, % (EOR) is not
output.
R31 : Variable numbers are not output. At the beginning and
end of the tape, % (EOR) is not output.
(a) When variable numbers are not output, the function for inputting
a macro variable (G337) can read the output variable data into a
variable indicated by address P.
(b) When % (EOR) is not output at the beginning and/or end of a tape,
two or more variable groups can be output to form a single tape
format.
(Example)
G330 Pp Bb ... ;
G338 P10000 Q10 F8.3 Z1
R11;⇒
IF[#8539NE0]GOTO999;
At the beginning, % (EOR)
is output. Then the data of
#10000 to #10009 is output
without variable numbers.
At the end, % (EOR) is not
output.
G338 P11000 Q20 F8.3 Z1
R31;⇒
IF[#8539NE0]GOTO999;
At the beginning and end, %

above to form a single tape
format.
G338 P12000 Q10 F8.3 Z1

(2) Function for inputting macro variables
By adding address Q to G337 described in (1) of Section 6.4.3, the
number of variables to be input can be specified. When address R is
also specified, data reading can be continued.
(Command format)
G337 Pp Qq R99;
--------P : Number of the variable to be read (V alid when variable
number N is not specified on the input tape)
Q : Number of variables to be read (Can be omitted)
R99 : Reading to be continued (Can be omitted)
(a) When address Q is specified, the number of variables to be read
can be specified. After the specified number of variables are
input, completion code #8539 is set to 99 to indicate that data
reading can be continued. If % (EOR) is read before reading the
specified number of variables, completion code #8539 is set to 0.
If address Q is omitted, the system assumes that an infinite
number is specified.
(b) When R99 is specified, the remaining variable data can be read
after the specified number of variables are read and completion
code #8539 is set to 99. If data reading is continued without R99,
the data of a variable is lost in the middle of reading because of
a significant information check. (The data up to the first ”;(LF)”
is skipped.)
(Example) Reading the tape output according to the example
described above

words. This command writes the program data coded in units of
characters in a variable area.
The block to be written must be defined beforehand in ASCII code
in a macro variable area. This command writes the data after the block
specified by the program number and block number.
The maximum number of variable data items is indicated by address
P . If EOB or EOR is detected while the specified variable data is being
written, data writing ends at the EOB or EOR. When neither EOB
nor EOR is found, the complete data indicated by address P is written.

Condensation of
Program
6.5.8
End Code (#8529)
When writing an NC program prepared by a conversational macro onto
the NC’s tape memory, the program can be condensed to extend memory
area.
Set a program number of a program to be condensed to the variable #8520
and specify G322. Then the program is condensed.
The result of condensation is informed to the end code #8529.
(Example) To condense O1234
#8520=1234;
G322;
IF [#8529 NE 0] GOTO Error;
Check the end code after running every processing.
The end is normal when the end code is 0, and when the end code is a
number other than 0, the same number as with the P/S alarm in the usual
edition processing and the following codes are informed.
#8529 Contents
140 Processing of the program being selected in the foreground cannot be con-
ducted.
200 The specified character code is not found. (G329)
202 The data to be written begins with O. (G329)
253 The specified block is not coded in words.
254 Program editing is prohibited by setting the memory protection key [when
compilation parameter bit 1 of No. 9006 (KEYC) is set to 0].
255 Need the option for background editing function.
It is impossible to instruct the statement during background editing.
Parameter for the extension function effective (No.9002#7 EXT1) must be
set to ”1” at compiling.

Reading and Presetting Cutting Time (#8553)
O, N number appearance can be erased on the CUSTOM screen.
O, N numbers does not appear when compile parameter ”ONMSK=1”
(No.9003#0).
Cutting distance and cutting time can be read and preset with the macro
variable of the conversational macro.
Use it for the control of a tool life.
#8553, #8554 does not bocome 0 at power on.
The time only for instruction of G01 (linear interpolation) and G02,G03
(circular interpolation) can be counted by #8553.
The unit is the same as the macro variable (#3002).
6.8.2
Reading and Presetting Cutting Distance (#8554)
The distance only for instruction of G01(linear interpolation), and G02,
G03 (circular interpolation) can be counted by #8554.
It is valid also for helical instruction.
Parameters (No.9002#7 / EXT1) and (No.9004#7 / CUTLG) have to be
on at compiling to use this function.
The unit is
... 0.001(mm) for the mm input system.
... 0.0001(inch) for the inch input system.
As the tool movement distance is added to #8554 at the time of starting
the cutting block, the distance of block movement is added even when
cutting stops during a block due to resetting, etc.

When there is no key input, the #8501 value is 0.
Once there is a key input, #8501 holds its value till it is input with the
macro statement, and the following key inputs will be ignored. When
#8501 is input, the status gets ready to accept the key input and #8501
will be 0.
It is impossible to write a value into #8501.
(2) Data input control variable #8502, numerical data variable #8503,
address data variable #8504
Control the input of numeric data and address data by setting the
following values to #8502.
#8502 = 0 ...No data input
= 1 ... Input of numeric data
= 2 ...Input of address data and numeric data
= 3... Expanded data input control
When #8502 is 0, nothing will be displayed on the data input line and
it will be impossible to input data, either.
When #8502 is 1, NUM will be displayed on the data input line and
input of numeric data will be possible. When #8502 is 2, ADRS will
be displayed on the data input line. After address data is input, NUM
is displayed and it is possible to input the numeric data. #8502 value
is 0 at switching on the power.
