3.6 SEFORM structuring statement in the Step editor
3.6
Function
The SEFORM statement is evaluated in the Step editor to generate the step view for HMI
Advanced. The step view available in the HMI Advanced improves the readability of the NC
subroutine. The SEFORM structuring statement supports the Step editor (editor-based
program support) over the three specified parameters.
Programming
SEFORM(STRING[128] section_name, INT level, STRING[128] icon)
Parameters
SEFORM
section_name
level
icon
Note
The SEFORM statements are generated in the Step editor.
The string transferred with the <section name> parameter is stored main-run-synchronously
in the OPI variable in a similar way to the MSG statement. The information remains until
overwritten by the next SEFORM statement. Reset and end of parts program clear the
content.
The level and icon parameters are checked by the parts program processing of the NCK but
not further processed.
For more information about editor-based programming support, see:
/BAD/ Operator's Guide HMI Advanced.
