CALLING-PROGRAM TYPE OF MACRO NESTED 1
G65,
G66,or
G66.1 AMP-G AMP-M
AMP-T
S or B
G65, G66 or G66.1 Yes Yes Yes Yes
AMP G-code Yes No No No
AMP M-code Yes No No No
AMP-T, S or B code Yes No No No
1 What Yes/No means:
Yes ---- the macro type across the top row may be called from the macro type down the left column.
No ---- the macro type across the top row may not be called from the macro type down the left column.
When this nesting is attempted, the control executes any other operation that would normally be
performed by that G, M, T, S, or B code (as defined by the control as a standard code, PAL, or
some other AMP feature); and the paramacro call normally made by that code is not performed.
Important: If the nesting is invalid (No in one of the above tables), the
control executes the programmed code as some other function (as defined
by the control as a standard code, PAL, or some other AMP feature); and
the macro call is not made. If no other function is found that uses that G--,
M--, T--, S--, or B--code, the control generates an error.
