Hello Cuba383 I understand why the manual might seem confusing, so I will try to explain what errors you made This is your orignal code for the toggle field (I/* 54,58//WORKOFFSET --> /W/$R[8]/20,75,150/200,75,30) And this is my code for the toggle field DEF VAR_TGL = (I/* 54, 55, 56, 57, 58//,"WORKOFFSET -->","G"///"$R[8]"/20,75,150/140,75,30) First as you might see, I put a DEF VAR_TGL = in front, this is needed to tell the controller that you are actually defining a variabel, in this case I called it VAR_TGL In your definition of the amount of values in the toggle, you only added 54.58 - Now this might be correct, but in my example I added each in between, because it is not a "From and To" but an individual value. Then you in your Text, when you are to define a text which is a string, your allways need "" around it, so Text becomes "Text" - If you do not do this, the code will error and you will not see anything of the variable, which I believe is what happend to you. This is your orignal code for the limit input field (I/1,5//FIXTURE [1 TO 5] --> /W/$R[10]/20,,150/200,100,30) And this is my code for the limit input field DEF VAR1 = (I/1,5//,"FIXTURE [1 TO 5] -->"///"$R[10]"/20,120,150/150,120,30) Here you bascially just made the same mistakes as above, and I will therefor not elaborate so much about these. I hope this helps :) I added this project as a help file. Attachmentma_auto.zip (311 Downloads) |

Well thanks Riddersholm, that is very well explained ! I understand that this is when you call these function with an added softkey, but I'm trying to do the same but calling it from a program. So somewhere in my program I have the line calling the .com file: MMC(CYCLES,PICTURE_ON,TEST.COM, etc......). This line will pop up a screen with all I want. Trying to reproduce what's in these pages that I attached. That book is 2005 and my controller is 2017, so maybe the codes are different. Thanks if you can help. AttachmentMMC.pdf (357 Downloads) |

Hello Cuba383 So I tested using the MMC command, and it worked just fine. I also updated the ma_auto.com file to include opening a program using the VS1 button. I hope this helpes Attachmentma_auto - Open with MMC or from .COM.zip (416 Downloads) |
