program module attibutes?

panic mode · Feb 6th 2020

anyone has info on some of the attributes such as &ACCESS or &PARAM.

Some are obvious, such as V in &ACCESS is Visible.

And &PARAM TEMPLATE shows name of template path and name used to create the program. But what is &PARAM EDITMASK *?

I don't know what it's real purpose, but is PARAM EDITMASK is used on VKRC robots, and I suppose it is a way to inform VSS what a user can or can't do on that specific program.

VKRC has a strict program naming convention.

So regular users can only create/manipulate programs named Folge(n), UPs or Makros, where the first is like a main program, the middle is a subprogram, and the later is somewhat a function (doesn't return values, but You can't put movement instructions inside).

These names can be only appended by a number suffix, like Folge1, UP99 and Makro0. On a VKRC, if You put a module named, lets say, Prog01, compiler will complain and give You a red cross.

There are some special makros, like MakroTrigger, MakroSPS and MakroSAW.

VKRC robots also have VW_User, a meta thecnology package containing VW (not so) secret sauce. You can be more creative naming programs inside VW_USer area, but integrators shouldn't touch these programs, unless under very special circumstances.

So, a header from a VKRC4 folge is like this

Code

&ACCESS RVO1
&REL 39
&COMMENT VWxxx
&PARAM DISKPATH = KRC:\R1\Folgen
&PARAM TEMPLATE = C:\KRC\Roboter\Template\vorgabe
&PARAM TPVW_VERSION = 8.1.8
&PARAM EDITMASK = Folge999[1-999]

A header from a UP

Code

&ACCESS RVO1
&REL 46
&COMMENT VWxxx
&PARAM DISKPATH = KRC:\R1\UPs
&PARAM TEMPLATE = C:\KRC\Roboter\Template\upvorgabe
&PARAM TPVW_VERSION = 8.1.8
&PARAM EDITMASK = Up999[1-999]

The header fom a regular Makro (Makro50)

Code

&ACCESS RVP2
&REL 1
&COMMENT INICIALIZACAO MARCAS
&PARAM TEMPLATE = C:\KRC\Roboter\Template\makrovorgabe.src
&PARAM TPVW_VERSION = 8.1.8
&PARAM EDITMASK = Makro999[0-999]

The header from MakroSPS, a special cyclic makro (acts like a .sub)

Code

&ACCESS RVO1
&REL 18
&COMMENT MAKRO_SPS_LASER
&PARAM TEMPLATE = C:\KRC\Roboter\Template\makrospsvorgabe.src
&PARAM TPVW_VERSION = 8.1.8
&PARAM EDITMASK = MakroSPS

And, finally, the header fom a VW_USER file (vw_usr_r.src)

Code

&ACCESS R
&COMMENT LA_KS24.06.015_VW
&PARAM DISKPATH = VW_User
&PARAM EDITMASK = vw_usr_r
&PARAM TPVW_VERSION = 8.1.8
&REL 438
