Check scope of NC language present (STRINGIS)
14.4
Function
The scope of NC language generated by a SINUMERIK 840D sl, including the active
GUD/macro definitions and the installed and active cycle programs, can be checked for
actual availability and their program-specific characteristics using the STRINGIS command.
For example, at the start of program interpretation, you can check the effectiveness of non-
activated functions.
The return values are output with coding by the HMI user interface and include basic
information as well as detailed information with additional coding.
Syntax
STRINGIS(STRING name) = return value with coding
In the current expansion stage, the (STRING name) to be checked is identified as follows:
000 as not known.
100 as NC language command which cannot however be programmed.
All programmable NC language commands which are active as options or function are
identified using
2xx. Associated detailed information is explained in more detailed under the value ranges.
Significance
The machine manufacturer uses machine data to define how to proceed and which NC
language commands should be used.
If language commands are programmed and their functions are not active or they are not
known in the current scope, an alarm message will be issued. Please refer to the machine
manufacturer's specifications in such cases.
