Macro File Editing Rules
Appendix
How to use Continue statements
When a single parameter has more than one argument, use
a Continue statement. The following example is of a
snapshot event.
An event to recall a snapshot in region M/E-1 is written as:
Event?,Snapshot,Region?,ME1,Register?,1,Attribute
?,Off,Time?,Current
In the Event statement, only one region can be specified.
To specify region M/E-1 and PGM/PST, use a Continue
statement, thus:
Event?,Snapshot,Region?,ME1,Register?,1,Attribute
?,Off,Time?,Current
Continue?,Snapshot,Region?,PP,Register?,1,Attribut
e?,Off,Time?,Current
To specify more than one argument for a region parameter,
follow the Event statement by a Continue statement on the
next line.
File Name
Set the file name as follows.
Example: nnnnnnnn.PNL_rrrr.PMR
nnnnnnnn: In a file created on the switcher, this is a
register name automatically set by the switcher.
The name is limited to eight characters.
The following characters may not be used.
space, \, /, :, ;, , (comma), . (dot), <, >, *, ?, ", |
rrrr: Macro register number (0001 to 0099)
Saving and Recalling a File
For a newly created file, if you create a directory on a
removable disk (see figure below), and move the file to the
prescribed location, you can then recall it in the File All,
External File menu.
When amending a file saved on the switcher, be sure to
save it in the original directory.
Path example: Removable Disk\Sample\MACRO\
CTRLCPU\nnnnnnnn.PNL_rrrr.PMR
Errors
If any of the following problems occur, it is not possible to
recall the file. Attempting to recall the file will produce an
error message.
• If there is a syntax error.
• If a required parameter is not present.
For details about error messages, 1 “Error Messages”
(p. 298).
Correspondence between Events and Symbols
For details about events, 1 “Events” (p. 180).
