SMC_GCodeViewer (FB)ΒΆ

FUNCTION_BLOCK SMC_GCodeViewer

This function block produces a textual representation of the G-Code that has been processed by SMC_NCInterpreter or SMC_NCDecoder. This textual representation can be displayed in a visualization. With the input interpolatedObjectId, typically connected with the SMC_Interpolator output actObjectId, the function block gets the information which line has already been processed. It will remove the text of already processed lines.

Note

The output of the function block does not exactly match the G-code stored in the editor or in the text file. For example, no blank lines or comments will be output and variables will be replaced with their value.

The function block is called in the same task as SMC_NCInterpreter.

The number of SMC_GCODEVIEWER_DATA objects in the buffer pBuffer must be at least as large as the sum of all buffer sizes of the SMC_NCInterpreter and the path-preprocessing function blocks.

Inout

GCodeText

SMC_GCODE_TEXT

Information about the interpreted GCode. Intended to be connected to the output with the same name of SMC_NCInterpreter or SMC_NCDecoder.

Input

bEnable

BOOL

The function block executes as long as bEnable is TRUE. Enable must be TRUE as long as either SMC_NCInterpreter or SMC_Interpolator are still busy.

interpolatedObjectId

SMC_GCodeObjectId

Identifier of the currently interpolated object of the path.

uiNumberOfBufferEntries

UINT

Size of the array that is passed by pBuffer. The size is in elements, not bytes.

pBuffer

POINTER TO SMC_GCODEVIEWER_DATA

Address of the array allocated as a buffer for the function block

Output

bError

BOOL

Signals, that an error has occurred within the function block

bBusy

BOOL

TRUE, if execution of function block is not finished

wErrorID

SMC_ERROR

Error identification

asGCode

ARRAY [0..c_uiLines] OF STRING

Currently active G-code lines. The first line (index 0) is the G-Code of the object currently being interpolated.
