Name of the file to be read (call-by-value parameter)
Type: STRING
<file name>:
The following points should be noted when specifying the file name:
• The specified file name must not contain any blank spaces or
control characters (characters with ASCII code ≤ 32), otherwise
the
READ command will be canceled with error code 1 "Path not
allowed".
• The file name can be specified with path data and file identifier.
– Path data
Path data must be absolute, i.e. start with "/".
If a path is not specified, the file is searched for in the current
directory (= directory of selected program).
– File identifier
If the file name does not contain a domain identifier ("_N_"), it
is added accordingly.
If the fourth-last character of the file name is an underscore
"_", the next three characters will be interpreted as the file
identifier. In order to be able to use the same file name for all
file commands, e.g. via a STRING type variable, only the
_SPF and _MPF file identifiers may be used.
If there is no "_MPF" or "_SPF" identifier, the file name is
automatically completed with _MPF.
• The file name length can be up to 32 bytes, the path length up to
128 bytes.
Example:
"PROTFILE"
"_N_PROTFILE"
"_N_PROTFILE_MPF"
"/_N_MPF_DIR_/_N_PROTFILE_MPF/"
Start line of the section of the file to be read (call-by-value
parameter)
Type: INT
0 Reads the number of lines specified with the
<number of lines> parameter before the end
of the file.
<start line>:
Value:
1 to n Number of the first line to be read.
Number of lines to be read (call-by-value parameter)
<number of lines>:
Type: INT
