8.2.5 Inputting/Outputting Custom Macro Common Variables
Custom macro common variables can be input and output using the
ALL IO screen.
Inputting custom macro common variables
Procedure
1 Press the vertical soft key [NEXT PAGE] on the ALL IO screen
until the vertical soft key [MACRO] appears, then press the
vertical soft key [MACRO].
2 Press the EDIT switch on the machine operator’s panel or enter
state emergency stop.
3 Press the horizontal soft key [N READ].
4 Type the name of the file that you want to input, and press the
horizontal soft key [F NAME].
If the input file name is omitted, default input file name
“MACRO.TXT” is assumed.
5 Press the horizontal soft key [EXEC].
This starts reading the custom macro common variables, and
“INPUT” blinks in the lower right part of the screen. When the
read operation ends, the “INPUT” indication disappears.
To cancel the input, press the horizontal soft key [CAN].
Outputting custom macro common variables
Procedure
