Control entries
Syntax: CHK_FILE_EXIST=
ram
Identifiers: This control flag: specifies whether configuration files must be copied
each time by the NC or whether a check must be made as to whether the
files are already stored on the RAM drive of the HMI.
Parameters: ram Possible values:
0: A check whether the file already exists on the
temporary drive is not carried out. This mode is only
set while the configuration files are being set up online
on the NC. Changes to configuration files in the NC
then become operative immediately on the HMI
Embedded sl, slowing down the display building
process.
1: Default setting (if CHK_FILE_EXIST has not been set):
The configuration files are read once into the
temporary directory and executed thereafter from
there. This means Runtime is improved, but there is no
reaction to changes in the configuration files in the NC.
Syntax: LOGSIZE=
kB
Identifiers: A LOG file named ERROR.COM is created on the temporary directory of
the HMI; its size is determined by this parameter setting.
Parameters: KB Size of the LOG file in kilobytes (max. size = 64 KB).
Syntax: RAMDISK_SIZE =
kBrd
Identifiers: RAMDISK_SIZE can be located at any position - within or outside the
sections. If the element occurs several times, then the first occurrence is
relevant.
If, after copying, the selected size has been exceeded, all of the COM
files in the temporary directory are deleted before the next copying
operation. (Files for dialogs in the background for operating area change
are retained.)
Parameters: kBrd Size of available RAMDISK in KB.
Default: 300 KB
(if the RAMDISK_SIZE element was not specified)
