    Hello

    Is it possible to use shopmill parameters in the user interface (parameters can be changed and written in the user interface, too)?
    For example, for a conical pocket or for a bevel in a pocket. If it’s possible, then how exactly?

    Thanks in advance

    Sure, it’s possible:

    ;----------------------
    R30=45 ; X-axis
    R31=45 ; Y-axis
    R32=-5 ; Z-axis
    ;----------------------

    N20 G54 ; zero point
    N30 G0 X-65 Y65 ; starting position
    N40 G0 Z0 ; starting position
    N50 G0 Z=-R32 ; 1st parameter

    N60 START_RE: ; label end
    N70 G1 G41 Y=R31 F100
    N80 G1 X=-R30
    N90 G1 Y=-R31
    N100 G1 X=R30
    N110 G1 Y=R31
    N120 G1 G40 X-65 Y65
    N130 R30=R30-1
    N140 R31=R31-1
    N150 R32=R32+1
    N160 END_RE: ; label end

    N170 REPEAT START_RE END_RE P4
    ; Label 4x repeat (Z=0)
    N180 G0 Z100

    Make it with DIN/ISO!
