Anaheim DPJ72LC2 manual M00 Program Pause, M30 End of Program, M98, M99, M02 Subroutine Commands

60 Section 4 System Programming

G02	X1.0	Y-1.0 I0.5 J-0.5 Moves the tool using counter-clockwise
			circular interpolation to the Program
			coordinate X=3.0, Y=4.0, Z=-2.0 with a
			center point at Program coordinate X=2.5,
			Y=4.5, Z=-2.0.
G90			All XYZ coordinates after this command
			will be interpreted as Program coordinates.
G01	X1.0	Y2.0 Z-0.5	Moves the tool directly to the Program
			coordinate X=1.0, Y=2.0, Z=-0.5.

M00 Program Pause

The M00 command pauses processing of the G-Code program. You can use this command anywhere in the program. By default, LC displays a dialog box to inform you that it has paused processing. You can control whether or not this dialog box appears using the Message on M00 Program Pause checkbox in the G/M Code Setup dialog box.

M30 End of Program

The M30 command ends processing of the G-Code program and automatically resets the program to the top.

M98, M99, M02 Subroutine Commands

Subroutines allow you to eliminate repetitive programming. LC supports the use of subroutines with the M98, M99, and M02 (or M30) commands. Use of these commands is best explained through a simple example. The following G-code program uses one subroutine called "mysub":

Example:
G01	X1 Y1 F10	First line of main program.
M98 Pmysub		Jump to subroutine “mysub”.
G01	X0 Y0	Continued execution after “mysub” ends.
M02		End of main program.
Omysub		First line of the subroutine called “mysub”.
G01	X2 Y2	Continued execution within the subroutine.
M99		End of subroutine “mysub”.

In the main program, the M98 command causes program execution to jump to the first line of the subroutine named "mysub". Notice that the letter "P" must immediately precede the name of the subroutine with no spaces.
