SLOTMAC.G Program
In the following example, Blocks 1260 through 1400 are comment
blocks that regard the macro's structure and concept.
Block # Block
N1255 O1255 * SLOTMAC.G
N1260
N1270 * EXAMPLE: G65 P1255 X 3 Y1 Z .125 A5 B12 C10
N1280 * P = SUB #
N1290 * X = X DIM OF SLOT #24
N1300 * Y = Y DIM OF SLOT #25
N1310 * Z = ABS DEPTH OF SLOT #26
N1320 * A = Z FEEDRATE #1
N1330 * B = XY FEEDRATE #2
N1340 * C = ANGLE FROM 3 o'clock #3
N1350
N1360 * NOTES:
N1370 * 1. SLOT WILL HAVE FULL RAD.
N1380 * 2. MUST POS'N XY OVER CENTER OF L.LEFT
RAD.
N1390 * 3. PROGRAM SLOT LENGTHWISE IN X, ANGLE
C WILL ROTATE
N1400
