Abstract
Abstract Data accommodated in a plurality of successive blocks specified by a registration command is converted into an execute form and prestored in storage means. In response to an execution command, control is performed in accordance with the stored data. In the case of executing in succession a plurality of blocks each having a short execution time, data in the blocks is converted into the execute form and stored. This eliminates the time for the data conversion, and hence permits continuous movement of a movable machine part.
