CALL Statement

A CALL statement transfers control to any program residing in the CNC’s memory. Upon

completion of the called program or an M2, M99, or M30, control is returned to the main

program at the block immediately following the CALL statement.

The CALL format is as follows.

CALL XXXX

Program

Name

The call statement is similar to an M98.

Example:

X1 Y1

Call ABC (call to ABC)

M99 (the M99 here is optional)

Note 1: Subprogram call allows nesting 50 levels deep.

Note 2: See page 6-96 for more information about using G92 in subprograms.

Note 3: You cannot use the L option to loop when using the CALL STATEMENT.
