Title: print code with custom functions
Post by: cch1955 on October 05, 2006, 09:22:13 AM

In your documentation it appears that you can print out a ladder with the custom function code used at the various locations in the ladder print out. Is this an option or something that needs to be down loaded?
In the documentation portion of a project this would really help understand the flow of the program.
Thanks

Only the custom function name appears on the ladder print out. The content of the custom function will be printed separately. There is no option to inter-mix the custom function content with the ladder program.

Any new plans in process for a nice print out utility?
Really help us users out here document our work and reduce your product support question due to a foggy view of the code.

I still dream of having significant variable names in the ladder basic tools.  Any hope here?

At the moment the latest version 6.13 hasn't incorporated these features that you have wished for. But we will send your wishes to the product development team for consideration.

I appreciate that. I believe it will add value to your fine product and reduce development costs.
Thanks

We have just released TRiLOGI version 6.20 and TLServer 3.15. TRiLOGI 6.20 now allows meaningful descriptive text to be attached to the variable name:

E.g.  A_pressure,
        DM[1]_feedrate
        DM[N]_whatever
        A$_longname

This can make your program easier to understand yet  preserving the simplicity of being able to perform online monitoring of the any variables used in your program.

Please see the following news release:

However, please note that .PC6 file created with long variable name will not compile on earlier version of TRiLOGI 6.xx.
