TC_WRITE

TC_WRITE

TC_WRITE("Teil2_Mittel_Schwer","ST030MD0-O2S0-30-2",5,-90)
TC_LASER_OFF(1)

LST code Explanation

Teil2_Mittel_Schwer

The text to be written

ST030MD0-O2S0-30-2

Technology table to be used

5

Text height in mm

-90

Text direction in degrees

Conversion to Din as follows:

DIN code Explanation

G253 F="TT2: ST030MD0-O2S0-30-2" E0
H100

Transfer of TT followed by H100. If there is no change in TT, then ignore this 2 lines!

G253 F=” Teil2_Mittel_Schwer” E0

Text to be written is transferred via G253 command to the PLC

TC_WRITE R[5;-90;0]

TC_WRITE is called with following parameters:
5 – text height in mm
-90 – text height in degrees
0 – text box length (default 0)

TC_LASER_OFF R[1]

Switch Off the laser and move the head up to the defined position

G253 F="TT2: ST030MD0-O2S0-30-2" E0

In above, the G253 command is used for the text to be written, so for the next TC_UPDATE_PARAM then again add the TT transfer, else there will be error!

FlyLine Incremental Command (IC)
