Robot Interpreter

This is crude but will get you going:

Declare the following in $CONFIG.DAT or a PUBLIC .DAT if you've created one:

GLOBAL SIGNAL oSPS_Green $OUT[***]

GLOBAL SIGNAL oSPS_Amber $OUT[***]

GLOBAL SIGNAL oSPS_Grey $OUT[***]

within SPS.sub:

IF ($PRO_STATE0 == #P_ACTIVE) THEN

oSPS_Green = TRUE

ELSE

IF ($PRO_STATE0 == #P_STOP) THEN

oSPS_Amber = TRUE

ELSE

IF ($PRO_STATE0 == #P_FREE) THEN

oSPS_Grey = TRUE

ENDIF

ENDIF

ENDIF

But don't forget to negate once the other condition is met.

IF ($PRO_STATE1 == #P_ACTIVE ) THEN
 $OUT [46] = TRUE
ELSE
 $OUT [46] = FALSE
ENDIF

should work, if done in the loop of sps.sub

$pro_state0 is state of Submit interpreter

$pro_state1 is state of main interpreter

$pro_state is state of interpreter in which context the variable is used. If in submit --> it's like $pro_state0 if in main program it's like $pro_state1. Doesn't make sense to use it in program, because if program is stopped it cannot evaluate the variable. If it's started it's always #p_active.

su05lly used the wrong one.

Shorter version:

 $OUT [46] = ($PRO_STATE1 == #P_ACTIVE )

more short version:

$OUT [46] = $pro_act

There is a system signal $pro_act that has already the wanted state.

So shortest version:

set attached output for $pro_act to 46, in configuration - outputs for auto external.

Just for my knowledge can you tell me what's the difference between $PRO_STATE ,$PRO_STATE0 , $PRO_STATE1 ??

variable manual is one of few key documents. check it out...

on KRC4 most KSS versions are described in KSS_81_82_83_84_System_Variables_en.pdf

for KSS8.5 there is KSS_85_System_variables_en.pdf etc.
