  When data is output, the decimal number value of the macro variable 

data is 
0:  Not output as a comment. 
1:  Output at the same time as a comment. 
 
After the number, data, and the variable name of the macro variable 
are output when data output operation is performed the variable 
number and the value of the macro variable data in decimal number 
are output as a comment. 
 

NOTE 

1  Output data by this parameter is "Comment", and 

this is ignored at the time of reading. 

2  Accuracy of the output data of the comment is up 

to 15 digits. The range of output data are nine 
digits above decimalpoint and eight digits below 
decimal point. "± OVER FLOW" is output instead of 
a value when the total digits number is more than 
16 and the digit number above the decimal point is 
ten or more. When the number of digits below the 
decimal point becomes nine digits or more, the 
ninth place of the decimal point is rounded off and 
output. Moreover, the seventh place or the eighth 
place of the decimal point is rounded off and output 
when the total digits number is more than 16 and 
the digit number above decimal point is nine or 
eight. 

3  The output becomes "EMPTY" when displayed, the 

macro variable data is "DATA EMPTY".

Set the M code to execute external device subprogram calls. When 0 is 
set, M198 is used. M01, M02, M30, M98, and M99 cannot be used to 
execute external device subprogram calls. When a negative number, 1, 
2, 30, 98, or 99 is set for this parameter, M198 is used to execute 
external device subprogram calls.

Among the common variables (#500 to #999), the range of common 
variables specified by this parameter can be protected (by setting their 
attributes to read-only). If a write attempt (on the left side) is made, an 
alarm is issued. 
 

NOTE 

 

Set 0 in both parameter No. 6031 and No. 6032 not 
to protect common variables.

[Input type]  Parameter input 

 [Data 

type] 

Word 

  [Valid data range]  0 to 400 

When the memory common to paths is used, this parameter sets the 
number of custom macro common variables to be shared (custom 
macro variables common to paths). Common variables #100 to #199 
(up to #499 in a system with the embedded macro option) may be 
shared. Ensure that the maximum number of usable macro common 
variables is not exceeded. 
 

Example 

 

When 20 is set in parameter No. 6036 

 

#100 to #119: Shared by all paths 

 

#120 to #149: Used by each path independently 

 

NOTE 

1  To use up to #199, the option for adding custom 

macro common variables is required. 

2  To use up to #499, the embedded macro option is 

required. 

3  When 0 or a negative value is set, the memory 

common to paths is not used. 

4  When the option for embedded macro is effective 

and the option for addition of custom macro 
common variables is not effective, #150 to #199 
can not be used but this parameter should be set 
the number which includes #150 to #199.

When the memory common to paths is used, this parameter sets the

Set this parameter to define multiple custom macro calls using G 
codes at a time. With G codes as many as the value set in parameter 
No. 6040 starting with the G code set in parameter No. 6038, the 
custom macros of program numbers as many as the value set in 
parameter No. 6040 starting with the program number set in parameter 
No. 6039 can be called. Set 0 in parameter No. 6040 to disable this 
mode of calling. 
If a negative value is set in parameter No. 6038, the modal call mode 
is entered. Whether the modal call is equivalent to G66 or G66.1 
depends on bit 3 (MGE) of parameter No. 6007. 
Example) 
 

When parameter No. 6038 = 900, parameter No. 6039 = 1000, 
and parameter No. 6040 = 100 are set, a set of 100 custom macro

using these parameters are disabled: 

1) When a value not within the specifiable range is 

set in each parameter

modal calls is not allowed.

No.6050 to 6059 are made preferentially.
