"MARK ALL" instead of

"FIND" and
all sites found are immediately marked with a blue
triangle at the left margin. You can then jump back
and forth with [F2] between the sites found.
Regular Expression
The regular expression implementation in search
and replace functionality handles the following
syntax:
••••• Wildcards: ? (for any character), + (for one or
more ot something), * (for zero or more of
something).
••••• Sets of characters: Characters enclosed in
square brackets will be treated as an option
set. Character ranges may be specified with a
- (e.g. [a-c]).
••••• Logical OR: Subexpressions may be ORed to-
gether with the | pipe symbol.
·••••• Parenthesized subexpressions: A regular ex-
pression may be enclosed within parentheses
and will be treated as a unit.
••••• Escape characters: Sequences such as \t, etc.
will be substituted for an equivalent single
character. \\ represents the backslash.

"DEVELOPMENT" menu
With the "DEVELOPMENT" menu functions you can
run, abort, continue or run the programs step-by-step,
which is particularly useful when searching for
errors. A debug mode and online status information
as well as the possibility to change the variables
during program execution make programming
easier. You should always subject newly written pro-
grams to a "SYNTAX CHECK" before running them
for the first time.
However, before you begin it is always necessary to
select a controller resp. a VLT.
Several helpful functions can be found in the
"COMMAND LIST": This lists a general overview of
all SyncPos commands, which can be selected and
transferred to the edit window immediately. And you
can work here with the teach-in programming.

"EXECUTE"
Click on "DEVELOPMENT"

→
→
"EXECUTE" or press
[F5] and the program that is opened and displayed
in the editor will be started.
In doing so the program is loaded into the VLT but
first it is complied, or translated into the internal
system language. The size of a program is reduced
considerably during compilation and thus the
memory of the SyncPos Motion Controller
is used
very efficiently.
At the same time the program is loaded into the
temporary sector of the RAM; this is overwritten with
each subsequent execute command. Thus, when
programming you have a quick and uncomplicated
process to test the programs.
NB!
However, it is neither possible to move a
compiled program back to the computer, nor
to edit the source file on the PC again. Thus, in
general, you should also save all programs on the
hard drive of the computer.
