5.7 Compiling programs
The programs, position list and system settings are compiled
into the internal command syntax of the SPC200 during com
pilation. This prepares the data for the SPC200 and the data
can now be downloaded to the SPC200.
A condition for compilation is that modifications to the pro
grams are saved.
The syntax of the
programs is automatically checked during
compilation. Any errors found are displayed as for the syntax
check and prevent compilation. In this event, remedy the er
rors and re−start the compilation.
Only error−free compiled project components can be down
loaded to the SPC200.
