Examples
Example 1: Measuring the duration of "mySubProgrammA"
Program code
...
N50 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=2
N60 FOR ii= 0 TO 300
N70 mySubProgrammA
N80 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=1
N95 ENDFOR
N97 mySubProgrammB
N98 M30
After the program has processed line N80, the net runtime of "mySubProgrammA" is located
in $AC_OLD_PROG_NET_TIME.
The value from $AC_OLD_PROG_NET_TIME:
● is kept beyond
M30.
● is updated each time the loop is run through.
Example 2: Measuring the duration of "mySubProgrammA" and "mySubProgrammC"
Program code
...
N10 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=2
N20 mySubProgrammA
N30 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=3
N40 mySubProgrammB
N50 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=4
N60 mySubProgrammC
N70 DO $AC_PROG_NET_TIME_TRIGGER=1
N80 mySubProgrammD
N90 M30
