Does anyone know a way to load a CNC program from CNC Editor faster using SMC_NCDecoder? It takes around 7 seconds to load 34 lines of G code and this is a problem for repeating the CNC program.

You cannot create an array of Programs. Create a Function Block for this purpose instead of a program. You can create an array of FB instances and call each instance in a loop.

Hello, thanks for the answer, that helped a little. How to achieve this behavior automatically when importing from a library, there can be a lot of dialogs from different librarys?

A standard string is actually a list of bytes that represent the ASCII code for each character. The following part of code will give you the ASCII code of one of the characters in the string: byChar := sInput[i];

Given the response to your API request, I don't think this is a CODESYS issue. The response says ... Please provide a valid API token ... so you must get a valid API key from enever.nl

One option could be to use a trigger variable to execute your trace and then toggle that variable from a step within a test case.

A task in CODESYS normally is a task of the underlying operating system. If your os is preemptive and the sheduler is configured accordingly a CODESYS task will be preemptive too.

Could not find the solution to this issue but I have side stepped this by creating a global variable MAX_SIZE.

okay but will this pass the array by copying it or it will be a reference to original array only.

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND or OR.
