Solution in principle for the clearing of differing contours

Question:

It should be possible to machine selectable contours with SL2 cycles in a program. 

Answer:

In the SL cycles a subprogram, named in Cycle 14, can be written consisting of solely of CALL PGM / Call LBL commands for using a selectable contour from another (main) program.

Global solution:

CYC DEF 14 ... 10

LBL10

CALL PGM 4711.h (or TNC:\Path\4711.h)

LBL 0

PGM 4711 can therefore be started by any program, and so only one instance is necessary.

Furthermore, a LBL number can be determined by a Q parameter as follows.

Local solution:

Q30 = 20

CYC DEF 14 ... 10

LBL10

CALL LBL Q30

LBL 0
