Custom Macro Variable guidelines
| Variable Type | Guidelines |
|---|---|
| Local | You cannot write Local common variables (CMV1-CMV33). |
| Vacant | Individual custom macro variables may be vacant on the CNC. Vacant macro variables are not currently assigned a value. A point that is reading a vacant custom macro variable will have a value of 0. |
Custom Macro Variable attributes
When configuring points for Custom Macro Variable Data, specify the following attributes:
| Point Class | ANALOG | |
| Type | REAL | |

Note: CIMPLICITY supports the system macro variable range of 1000-9999. However each CNC configuration may not support this range of address; that support depends on your physical devices and configuration.
Custom Macro Variable restrictions
guide: Guidelines
When writing P Code Macro Variables that support the real (floating-point) data type, please be aware that the available range is 999999999,...,-999999999.
