Abstract
A subroutine executable by the numeric controller to control a production machine is disclosed. A user selects at least one program instruction of the subroutine and the numeric controller outputs a parameterized description of the selected program instruction or of a sequence of program instructions that contains the selected program instruction to the user using the user interface. The user enters a change in the parameterized description and stores a modified subroutine that corresponds to the changed parameterized description. The numeric controller sends a message to a predetermined address identifying. the original subroutine and the change made in a form that can be evaluated in automated fashion. The CAM system that generated the subroutine uses the message to independently and automatically ascertain a data record on which the original subroutine is based and to modify the data record accordingly.
