    Unhappy Checking sign of numeric value in fanuc macro

    Hello, I need to check the sign +/- of a value in any register of a fanuc oi cnc macro.
    (Maybe using an "IF" type expression) i.e.: IF #500EQ(?) GOTO...
    It seems like it should be simple but I'm stumped.

    What are you trying to check
    are you trying find the value of the macro number or is a specific number that you want the program to goto xxxx ?

    Here is what you need to do:

    N10 IF[#500 LT 0]GOTO 100
    N20 IF[#500 GT 0]GOTO 200
    N30 IF[#500 EQ 0]GOTO 40
    N40 (This line will run if #500 is 000.0000)
    N100 (This line will run if #500 is -000.0001or less)
    N200 (This line will run if #500 is 000.0001or more)
