To Subroutine NC Sequences
Subroutine programming allows you to create NC sequences, place them as macros at the beginning of the CL file, and then call them from the main body of the CL file as many times as needed. You can automatically create subroutines for all specified parts in the nest. This enhancement reduces the size of CL files, making them easier for the controller to handle and for the programmer to read and edit. Once you set up a process environment, individual NC sequences can be set for subroutine output.
Click the options located in the Subroutine tabbed page to perform the following functions.
Use
To
Create or update single sequence subroutines.
Create group sequence subroutines.
Automatically create all possible single sequence subroutines.
Automatically create all possible group sequence subroutines.
Exclude selected sequences and delete selected subroutines.
Delete all subroutines.
Expand all tree nodes.
Collapse all tree nodes.
Also, click the following options located in the Subroutine tabbed page to reorder the subroutines:
Definition Placement—To place the subroutine at Top, Default, or Bottom of the selected subroutine.
Enumerate—To select all subroutines.
Rotation Step—To specify the value for step rotation of subroutine.
