STX instruction for outputting numerical values
Function DisplayValue(Dev:Int,
Pos:Int,
Value:Double);
Parameter Value Description
Dev 8 ... 11 Number of the device where the
value is to be output
Pos Not relevant Will not be evaluated
Value Value to be output Constant value, name of a register
or a variable
To output a numerical value on a printer module, the instruction must be
invoked as follows:
DisplayValue( 8 , 0 , - 12.345 );
DisplayText( 8 , 0 , '$t' );
DisplayValue( 8 , 0 , Axis2.Position);
DisplayText( 8 , 0 , '$n' );
The first STX instruction lets you output value -12,345 . The second STX
instruction inserts a tab ($t). The third STX instruction lets you output the
content of the variable Axis2.Position . Finally, the fourth STX instruction
triggers a carriage return and a line feed ($n).
The task in the application program stops at the instruction
DisplayText()
or DisplayValue() until the whole text/value string has been output.
