Value assignment in program execution
In the case of value assignment in program execution, the rules described above for the
definition apply. The following options are also supported:
● Expressions are also permitted as elements in the value list.
● Value assignment starts with the programmed array index. Values can be assigned
selectively to subarrays.
Examples:
Program code Comment
DEF REAL varName[10] ; Array definition
varName[5]=REP(4.5,3) ; Array elements [5] to [7] = 4.5
R10=REP(2.4,3) ; R-parameters R10 to R12 = 2.4
DEF FRAME FRM[10] ; Array definition
FRM[5]=REP(CTRANS(X,5)) ; Array elements [5] to [9] = CTRANS(X,5)

3.1.1.13 Data types
The following data types are available in the NC:
Data type Meaning Value Range
INT Integer with sign -2147483648 ... +2147483647
REAL Real number (LONG REAL to IEEE) ±(∼2,2*10
-308
… ∼1,8*10
+308
)
BOOL Truth value TRUE (1) and FALSE (0) 1, 0
CHAR ASCII character ASCII code 0 to 255
STRING Character string of a defined length Maximum of 200 characters (no special
characters)
AXIS Axis/spindle identifier Channel axis identifier
FRAME Geometric parameters for static coordinate
transformation (translation, rotation, scal‐
ing, mirroring)
---
Implicit data type conversions
The following data type conversions are possible and are performed implicitly during
assignments and parameter transfers:
from ↓/ to → REAL INT BOOL
REAL x o &
INT x x &
