Menu for selecting the logic program file

In CPRog/iRC the main motion program is a single thread, it is not possible to define e.g. interrupts. To realize parallel running logic functionality a logic file can be loaded. This file is then interpolated in parallel to the main program.

Requirements

Possibilities and Limitations

  • The logic program is defined in the same syntax as the main motion program
  • It should consist only of logic coammands. Motion commands are computed but not put into action
  • The changes to digital outputs and global signals are put into action
  • The changes override the settings of the motion program
  • The logic program is running in repeat mode whenever the motion program is running.

Set Up

Open the program configuration (File -> Configure Project -> Program), select the logic program file and apply or save the project.

Side Effects

  • As mentioned above the digital output settings of the motion program are overridden.
