innovators for industry
Ctrl Command get_dll_version
Function Returns the version number of the RTC6 DLL.
Call DLLVersion = get_dll_version()
Result Version number.
As an unsigned 32-bit value.
Comments • The RTC6 DLL version numbers are in the range 600…699.
• get_dll_version is available even without explicit access rights to a specific
RTC6 board.
• get_dll_version is not available as a multi-board command.
• The board-specific error variables LastError and AccError , see Chapter 6.8 ”Error
Handling”, page 130, are neither generated nor altered by get_dll_version.
RTC4RTC6 Unchanged functionality.
RTC5RTC6 Unchanged functionality.
Version info Available as of DLL 600, OUT 600, RBF 600.

Ctrl Command get_encoder
Function Returns the current counts of the two internal encoder counters.
Call get_encoder( &Encoder0, &Encoder1 )
Returned
parameter
values
Encoder0 Current count of encoder counter “Encoder0”.
As a pointer to a signed 32-bit value.
Encoder1 Current count of encoder counter “Encoder1”.
As a pointer to a signed 32-bit value.
Comments • For usage of get_encoder, see Chapter 8.6 ”Processing-on-the-fly”, page 242 and
Chapter 9.3.3 ”Synchronization by Encoder Signals”, page 298.
• If the workpiece movement is registered with an incremental encoder:
– Encoder counter “Encoder0” is triggered by the signals at encoder input port
ENCODER X
– Encoder counter “Encoder1” is triggered by the signals at encoder input port
ENCODER Y
• If an encoder simulation has been started by simulate_encoder, the encoder counters
are triggered by an internal periodic 1 MHz clock signal.
RTC4RTC6 Unchanged functionality. In addition: increased value range.
RTC5RTC6 Unchanged functionality.
Version info Available as of DLL 600, OUT 600, RBF 600.
