(7) Compile parameter
The term, compile parameter, used in this manual does not
represent an ordinary CNC parameter but represents a parameter
determined by the link control file when a P-CODE file is
created. (Refer to "FANUC Macro Compiler For Series 30i

the compile parameters cannot be modified, for example,
through the MDI panel.
