Main and Sub programs

Is it possible to wright Main and Sub programs in PcDmis as done on the CNC machines? Looking for more possibilities in the lights out area, checking multiple fixtured parts.

In Fanuc NC code,
Main program 1234 >> G65PXXXXXX calls a sub program to run independent (set of instructions).
at the end of sub, M99 returns control to main program.
Main program 1234 >> G65PYYYYYY calls a sub program to run independent (set of instructions).
at the end of sub, M99 returns control to main program.
Main program 1234 >> G65PZZZZZZ calls a sub program to run independent (set of instructions).
at the end of sub, M99 returns control to main program.
Main program 1234 >> end M30​​

  • Thanks for the help, but it is a much more basic request. I just need to setup a variety of parts in fixtures on the table at 1 time. the idea is to start 1 program (main) at the end of the day, and have it run at night sequencing through the different programs (subs). When I come back in the morning, then I can review the results from the individual programs.
