Hi I have a cnc working center with the Siemens 840d but the first edition the one that has the lcd screen but in monocromatic.

If i am not wrong the vertion of my software is 3.78 but i am not so sure.
I worked before with other machines that had Siemens controllers but newer vertions and so when i need to repeat a part of a program i wroted

N200 BEGIN:
N210 g01 .....
...
...
END:

Repeat Begin End p=n(times)

Now i wroted this in my machine and it arrived at the line 190 and wrote Begin is not a defined variable please ceck the program.,...

Now i have no idea why the machine wrote this alarm message.

To everybody who has the Siemens controller:

PLEASE HELP ME TO UNDERSTAND HOW I CAN REPEAT A PART OF PROGRAM::::

Thanks :cheers:

Can you post your program here, as a .txt file?

[servtech]

try for example.

AA: (start name)
G4 F5
G01 X0Y0Z0.
G4 F5
GOTOB AA (GOTOB means go back to target name)

Note. GOTOF means go forward to when used.

You can also type

LOOP
(prog)
.
.
ENDLOOP

this does the same as GOTOB in this case.
