Sinumerik 840D - MCALL

Having trouble getting the siemens 840D MCALL command to simulate.

Defined the word MCALL as macro
Under the Cycles section MCALL range * is defined as: CycleSubroutineOn
with the scan option.

When specifying in NC the line:

MCALL SUBPROGRAM or MCALL "SUBPROGRAM"
I get errors:
Word SUBPROGRAM is not defined
Problem parsing current line.
What am i missing?

Re: Sinumerik 840D - MCALL

Try adding the 'SubroutineName' macro above the 'CycleSubroutineOn' macro within your MCALL?

This gets rid of the error on my control, cant test it tho

Also is the 'Type of Subroutine' in Control Settings set to 'Text'?

Hope this stab in the dark helps!!

Cheers..
