Control via script files
When configuring production machinery, it is useful to control the conversion and
download of the cam profiler data by means of batch files. For this purpose, the Cam
Loader can be controlled by means of a script file without the need of additional data input.
[ For this, the Cam Loader is started with additional program parameters via the
command line.
[ As an option, the processing results of the script file can be listed in a log file.
7.1
Creating a script file
The Cam Loader can automatically create a script file for an open project which can be used
to start the Cam Loader without user interface, e.g. on an IPC.
X
Select the command FileWCreate script files to create a script file for the current
project.
[ The script file can be found under the project name in the corresponding project
directory. It has the ending ".cmd".
– The script file contains all project axes, i.e. for a complete download you only have to
start the Cam Loader with the script file.
[ In addition, one script file each will be created for each axis and stored under the name
of the axis in the corresponding axis subdirectory.
– The script files can be used to carry out script-controlled downloads to the individual
axes.

Tip!
As an alternative, script files can be created with a traditional text editor. Informa-
tion about the script files and an example can be found in the next chapter
