I have a large quantity of programs. Each program has up to 20 subs.
I am running into the issue that I can no longer maintain unique program numbers.
They are starting to overlap. So if i need to load a previous ran program, i am not able to because of the overlap.

So if I want to load this in a machine and it overlaps one already in, I have two options.
1. Manually change every m98p### in the main program and re number each sub.
2. Output from my cam software as new

Do you know of a utility that will renumber programs and sub numbers in a program for fanuc controls?
All my programs are stored as a text file with the main program first and all the subs at the bottom in one text file.

I download programs from the machine so that they can be ran again later. There are always some small changes made, like speeds and feed and depth of drill, etc.

I want a macro or utility to renumber subs and sub-calls for me.

Anyone have a solution?

I do not remember exactly where I have seen this
I think it's possible to get 6 digit program numbers on some newer controls.

It could be just in option parameters this feature needs to be turned on.

Nice program. You can capture great images with it.

Allow 8 digit program numbers

Fanuc 16/18/21/I-series -Parameter 6 from 0 to 1

Try this

Check if your machine allows local subs like a Haas, or if you can specify a line number in the subroutine like this:

P1000 H25 M98

Where H_ is the line number in program 1000.
