Hi, everyone

I'm using SINUMERIK 840D.

If I define a macro by using "DEFINE....AS" instructor in "_N_UMAC_DEF", what should I do next in order that I can use it in my other main and subprograms?

For example:
In "_N_UMAC_DEF"
DEFINE FixUnclamp AS (($A_DBB[160] B_AND 1)<>0)

And I want to use the FixUnclamp in my main program.

Or is the macro automatically ready to use because it is defined in default manufacturing macro define file "_N_UMAC_DEF"?

Thanks.

I will try to look in my manuals today for some more info. Another way to do this is just put that program in the subprogram file and you can call it from any main or subprogram by simply entering the name of the program. For example you can call your sub. FIXUNCLAMP
then in your main programs just write FIXUNCLAMP and it will jump to the sub run it then go back to the main. Hope this helps
