RP — Repeat command line

Usage

IMM

PGM

MIP

Syntax

RPnn

Parameters

Description

nn

[int]

— Number of times to repeat command line.

Range

nn

—

1

to

2147385345.

Units

nn

— None.

Defaults

nn

Missing: 1.

Out of range: 1 or 2147385345 (forced in range)

Floating point: Decimal value truncated.

Description

This command is a flow control instruction that repeats the execution of a
command line

nn

number of times. It must be placed at the end of a com-

mand line that has to be repeated. The line must have at least one more
command on it, separated by a command separator.
If the

nn

parameter is missing or set to a value less than 1, the command

line is executed one time, similar to a

nn

value of 1.

NOTE

Any command placed on a line after RP is ignored, without issuing an
error.

NOTE

Be careful when using flow control commands, specially nested ones.
Avoid mixing different type of flow control commands on the same line.
As in other programming languages, improper loops and loop mixings
could generate undesirable results.

Returns

None.

Errors

R

—

Command cannot be at the beginning of a line.

Rel. Commands

WG

—

While variable is greater.

WH

—

While input is equal.

WL

—

While variable is less.

WY

—

While variable is different.

Example

3PA0 |

Move axis #3 to position 0.

2PR.1, WS, 3PA10, WS, 3PA0, WS,

RP20

|

Make a relative move of 0.1 units on axis #2, wait for all motion to
stop, move axis #3 to position 10, wait for all motion to stop, move
axis #3 back to 0, wait to stop; repeat the entire cycle 20 times.
