HINT: In addition to the movement itself you can specify additional parameters for the line
segments, e.g. a spindle speed (S-command).

390
N278 G01 x25.15 y10.0 F1000 S0

Here you can specify any command lines necessary to finalize a rapid traverse movement.
Tab page Macros
Macros are used within the profile definition as a placeholder for values, which are analyzed and
generated at the defined position when the G-Code file is written.
Therefore macros are used to link the slice data of a build job from VisCAM with the profile
definition for the G-Code file.
HINT: Macros can be used as a part of a command line as well as within comments. Macros
have to be used within brackets ('[..]'). Therefore they differ from comments which are used in
parentheses ('(..)') .
Example for a macro inside a command line:
Profile: G01 [NEXT_X] [NEXT_Y] F300
G01 25.15 10.0 F300
Profile: N[CL_NR] G01 [xNEXT_X] [yNEXT_Y] S1
N278 G01 x25.15 y10.0 S1
