User Macros (G65, G66, G67)
Use G66 when you want to use a modal macro sub-program. These
groups of instructions can be special canned cycles made up by the
user to simplify the programming of the particular part, or master
programs for similar part families, programmed with variables rather
than fixed dimensions.
Macros can contain automatic measuring sequences for sensors,
such as a probe, for feedback to the 3500i.
Format #
