Command Meaning
setMirrorMode(true|false)
Enables (true) or disables (false) mirror mode
When mirror mode is enabled, the frames of all displays
in which mirror mode has not been disabled with
enableMirrorMode(false) are mirrored horizontal‐
ly. In other words, frames that were previously displayed
on the left are now displayed on the right and vice versa.
The size of the frames does not change.
toggleMirrorMode()
Toggles the mirror mode
If it was previously enabled, it is now disabled and vice
versa.
sendCmd(appname, cmd1, ….)
Sends a command to the appname application. If the
target application is appname SINUMERIK Operate
(appname="OPERATE"), the operating area of SINU‐
MERIK Operate can be selected in this way,
e.g. sendCmd(OPERATE, AreaMachine)
The identifier for the operating area (AreaMachine)
can be taken from the systemconfiguration.ini
file (see [areas] section). If the target application is
an application created on the basis of the
SlGfwSideScreenDialog class, this application is
given a command of the type
SL_GFW_MSG_DISPCONFIG_CMD in its onMessage()
implementation.
The commands cmd1,…, cmd10 are given as mes‐
sage data in the form of a string in which the individual
parameters (cmd1 … cmd10) are separated by the "|"
symbol.
Commands to Windows applications (.EXE) are not
possible with sendCmd()!
