If a subroutine is to be executed several times in succession, write the number of times it is to be executed in the block of
the call after the subroutine name under the

are possible (P1 ... P9999).
; Call subroutine L785, 3 cycles
Subroutines can also be called from a subroutine, not only from a main program. In total, up to
are
available for this type of nested call, including the main program level.
See the following illustration for execution with 8 program levels:
Modal G functions can be changed in the subroutine, e.g. G90 -> G91. When returning to the calling program, ensure that all
modal functions are set the way you need them to be.
Please make sure that the values of your arithmetic parameters used in upper program levels are not inadvertently changed
in lower program levels.
When working with SIEMENS cycles, up to 4 program levels are needed.
Calling machining cycles
Functionality
Cycles are technology subroutines realizing a certain machining process generally, for example, drilling or milling.
Adaptation to the particular problem is performed directly via supply parameters/values when calling the respective cycle.
