Gemini GV6K and Gemini GT6K Programmer's Guide

Variables
Gem6K Series controllers have four types of variables, each designated with a different
command. All four types are automatically stored in non-volatile memory.
Type Command Quantity Function
Numeric
(real)
VAR 225 Store real numeric data (range is ±999,999,999.99999999). Can be
used to perform mathematical (=, +, -, *, /, SQRT), trigonometric
(ATAN, COS, PI, SIN, TAN), and Boolean (&, |, ^, ~) operations.
Can also be used to store (“teach”) variable data in variable arrays
(called data programs) and later use the stored data as a source for
motion program parameters (see Variable Arrays on page 110 for
details).
Integer VARI 225 Store integer numeric data (range is ±2,147,483,647). Can be used
to perform mathematical (=, +, -, *, /) and Boolean (&, |, ^, ~)
operations.
Binary VARB 125 Store 32-bit binary or hexadecimal values. Can also store the binary
status bits from status registers. Frequently used registers are:
inputs (IN), outputs (OUT), limits (LIM), system (SS), Following (FS),
axis (AS & ASX), and error (ER). For example, the VARB2=IN.3
command assigns the binary state of input 12 to binary variable 2.
Also use to perform bitwise operations (&, |, ^, ~, >>,
