As of CNC Build V2.10.1025.00 and higher, the CNC can automatically create the external variables in the memory without gaps. External variables can also be assigned to any memory address by using the parameter var[i].byte_offset P-EXTV-00002 or by selecting a 24-byte are via var[i].index P-EXTV-00038.
If the automatic and manual address selection is combined, this parameters defines how the CNC generates the automatic addresses for the variables.
Parameter
auto_memory_mode
Data type
STRING
Data range

Default value
START_VE_MEMORY
Remarks
This parameter is available as of CNC Builds 2.11.2027.01, V.2.11.2807.18 or V3.1.3052.01 and higher. Older CNC builds always use the START_VE_MEMORY setting.
