Condition Handler

Why not using background logic?

I think that is what the user is asking. Despite mentioning "Condition handler" specifically, the user also said "background" and "parallel with the running program".

If all you want is to tie a specific output to a specific input at all times, set up an I/O interconnect. It is a much simpler solution than using condition handlers, bglogic, or karel.

If this won't work for you for some reason, post what exactly you are trying to accomplish and we can help you figure out what the best solution is.

If you want to run it in parallel, use the RUN command. The program does not have to be a Karel program though and I would stay away from Karel unless you are trying to do something that cannot be done with TPP.

Thanks for your response.

so what I should I do after creating the karel file?

should I call this file in Background-LG ? Or running it as Background-LG ?

I would like to know what is the next step after building the karel program?

Thanks,

Background Logic is for TP programs only, and has some limits on how much TP language it can use -- for example, Mixed Logic is not allowed (IIRC).

If you want to run a KAREL program as a background task, it has to be called using a RUN command from a TP program (instead of a CALL). If you want the KAREL program to keep running indefinitely in the background, you'll need to make an infinite loop inside it, but that loop will need to include:

1. A time delay each cycle. Otherwise, the runaway loop will eat all the system resources

2. A way to stop it -- say, exiting the loop if a particular Flag or DO is set. Otherwise, you'll find yourself in situations where you need to kill that task, and can't.

Do you have a means to compile your ASCII file (.LS or .KL) into the Fanuc binary format (.TP or .PC)?

use the %NOLOCKGROUP directive
