3.5.2 Parameter Commands
These commands are used to set, read and store axis parameters or global parameters. Axis parameters
can be set independently for each axis, whereas global parameters control the behavior of the module
itself. These commands can also be used in direct mode and in standalone mode.
Parameter Commands
Mnemonic Command number Meaning
SAP 5 Set axis parameter
GAP 6 Get axis parameter
SGP 9 Set global parameter
GGP 10 Get global parameter
STGP 11 Store global parameter
RSGP 12 Restore global parameter
Table 7: Parameter Commands
3.5.3 Branch Commands
These commands are used to control the program flow (loops, conditions, jumps etc.). Using them in direct
mode does not make sense. They are intended for standalone mode only.
Branch Commands
Mnemonic Command number Meaning
JA 22 Jump always
JC 21 Jump conditional
COMP 20 Compare accumulator with constant value
CSUB 23 Call subroutine
RSUB 24 Return from subroutine
WAIT 27 Wait for a specified event
STOP 28 End of a TMCL program

3.5.4 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.
