WAIT FOR

http://www.robot-forum.com/rob…s/robotforum/shield11.gif

Hi everybody,

The RAPID language for ABB have a optional parameter for a "WATIUNTIL", this optional is the "TimeFlag". When this is actived, the program wait the condition just for a time.

Example: WaitUntil IN_Injet_Start = 1\MaxTime:=8\TimeFlag:=Aux_Timeout;
** The program will wait the condition "IN_Injet_Start" just for 8 second

I need any thing like this optional but for a PDL2 language for COMAU. Please, help me.

Thanks krzych,

I found de answer in the comaus manual.

PROGRAM input_check
ROUTINE time_out: BOOLEAN
-- checks to see if input is received within time limit
CONST
time_limit= 3000
VAR
time_slice : INTEGER
BEGIN
$TIMER[1] := 0
REPEAT
time_slice:= $TIMER[1]
UNTIL ($DIN[1] = ON) OR (time_slice > time_limit)
IF time_slice> time_limitTHEN
RETURN (TRUE)
ELSE
RETURN (FALSE)
ENDIF
END time_out
BEGIN -- main program
. . .
IF time_out THEN
WRITE (Timeout Occurred)
ENDIF
. . .
END input_check

With this program i can wait an input just for a time
