    Fanuc 3tf & Macro Programming

    Hi All,
    I have an 80's Okuma Howa Act3 with the fanuc 3tf controller. The manual says it can do macro programming but when I try an input the program it alarms out when it reads the # sign, nor does the # symbol work when writing on the controller. I'm assuming it's a parameter issue, but?? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for you time.

    The option list I have does not show Macro option capability, as already mentioned.
