SINUMERIK R-Parameters

Program a SINUMERIK the way Siemens intended — R-parameters, indirect R[R1] addressing, IF/ENDIF logic and WHILE loops — all graded in your browser against the same engine the Macro Playground runs. Eight lessons that build from a single assignment to a parametric bolt circle.

1. 1R-Parameters & AssignmentStore a number in an R-parameter and compute one value from another.
2. 2Arithmetic & FunctionsDo trigonometry on a SINUMERIK and know that it works in degrees.
3. 3Indirect Addressing with R[R1]Use one R-parameter as the index into another — the Siemens superpower.
4. 4Decisions with IF / ENDIFBranch on a seeded value with an IF / ELSE / ENDIF block.
5. 5Repeating Work with WHILEAccumulate a running total in a WHILE loop instead of copying blocks.
6. 6Reading Machine StateRead a $-system variable into an R-parameter and compute with it.
7. 7A Tolerance GuardSet a status flag from an in/out-of-tolerance decision covering both directions.
8. 8The Bolt CircleCombine R-parameters, trig, a loop and indirect addressing into one parametric routine.
