3.6.4 I/O Port Commands
These commands control the external I/O ports and can be used in direct mode as well as in standalone
mode.
I/O Port Commands
Mnemonic Command number Meaning
SIO 14 Set output
GIO 15 Get input
Table 9: I/O Port Commands
3.6.5 Calculation Commands
These commands are intended to be used for calculations within TMCL applications. Although they could
also be used in direct mode it does not make much sense to do so.
Calculation Commands
Mnemonic Command number Meaning
CALC 19 Calculate using the accumulator and a constant value
CALCX 33 Calculate using the accumulator and the X register
AAP 34 Copy accumulator to an axis parameter
AGP 35 Copy accumulator to a global parameter
ACO 39 Copy accu to coordinate
Table 10: Calculation Commands
For calculating purposes there is an accumulator (also called accu or A register) and an X register. When
executed in a TMCL program (in standalone mode), all TMCL commands that read a value store the result
