Newbie- executing a program with sub

[pbarry]

I have just been hired by a company to program and operate a milltronis mill with a centurion 5 controller.I do not have a book for it.I have written a easy loop program called o100 and it calls o200.
m98 po200 l10
this tells me program 200 does not exist.Any ideas what I am doing wrong?
Which drive do i put the files in to run them. Any help would be appreciated.

If the file names are o0100 and o0200 the call statement M98 P200 L10 should work. Omit the "o" from the M98 line.

Do I have to run the program out of the parts directory

If you want a quick way to check how to write the code, use the conversational programming boxes, write the a partial program like a "call" for instance and then open up that program in the text programming area.

If this is confusing what I am trying to say, I will be back at the shop next week and I'll tell you the F key sequence to do this. It will basically write you sample code to show you the format you need to use when typing G code.
