R parameters

R parameters (arithmetic parameters) are channel-specific variables that you can use within
a G code program. G code programs can read and write R parameters.
These values are retained after the controller is switched off.
Number of channel-specific R parameters
The number of channel-specific R parameters is defined in a machine data element.
Range: R0-R999 (dependent on machine data).
There are no gaps in the numbering within the range.
