#MC_MovePath command

Release Note

Available as of V3.1.3110

Syntax of the NC command:

#MC_MovePath [SYN] [ CH=.. JobID=.. FileName=.. @PL<1…20>=..
                                        [InitializeOnActualPosition=..]
                                        [SetDefaultConfig=..]
                                        [ReportSceneSampling=..]
                                        [ReportRunTimeMeasure=..]
                                        [ReportAxesPositionSample=.]. ]

SYN	Synchronous command execution of the ISO program. Before the command is executed, an implicit channel synchronisation takes place (implicit #FLUSH WAIT).
CH=..	Logical channel number of the channel in which the job is executed. The link between the CNC channel number and the CNC channels is specified in the start-up list. (See Parameter descriptions).
JobID=..	User-specific job identification number (job ID). Every number must be unique in the commanding program of the master channel. For example, this ID is used in the #WAIT MC_Status command for job identification.
FileName=<filename>	Filename of the ISO program which is to be started.
@P<i>=..	Parameter transfer to the commanded ISO program. These parameters can be accessed in the called “main program” by @PL<i>.
InitializeOnActualPosition=..	Requests current positions at program start. See Channel operation mode- SUPPRESS_POSITION_REQUEST If InitializeOnActualPosition is not used, the current configuration specified applies.
	ON	Request the position regardless of the current configuration.
	OFF	“No position request” regardless of the current configuration.
	USE_ACTUAL	The current configuration specified applies

SetDefaultConfig =..	Initialises decoder working data at program start. See Channel operation mode- SUPPRESS_PROG_START_INIT If SetDefaultConfig is not used, the current configuration specified applies.
	ON	Initialisedecoder working data.
	OFF	Deselect initialisation of decoder working data.
	USE_ACTUAL	The current configuration specified applies
ReportSceneSample=..	Enables the interface to log scene data. See Channel operation mode- BEARB_MODE_SCENE If ReportSceneSample is not used, the current configuration specified applies.
	ON	Log scene data.
	OFF	Disable scene data logging.
	USE_ACTUAL	The current configuration specified applies
ReportRunTimeMeasure=..	Enables the interface to log time stamps. See Channel operation mode - ONLINE_PROD_TIME If ReportRunTimeMeasure is not used, the current configuration specified applies.
	ON	Generate time stamp data.
	OFF	Disable logging of time stamp data.
	USE_ACTUAL	The current configuration specified applies
ReportAxesPositionSample=..	Enables the interface to log axis positions. See Channel operation mode- ON_LINE If ReportAxesPositionSample is not used, the current configuration specified applies.
	ON	Generate log data of axis positions.
	OFF	Disable logging of axis positions.
	USE_ACTUAL	The current configuration specified applies.

Notice

After reading in #MC_MovePath, the interpretation of the CNC program is not continued until the job commanded by the command is successfully stored in the job queue of the channel agent.

Programing Example

Starting a program in another channel

The executed program starts the SlaveFile.nc program with the 3 listed parameters in channel 3. These parameters can be used in the SlaveFile.nc program (e.g. by G01 X@PL1).
