The Specific Task option displays the execution status of the task selected
Task Number menu at the operator interface. The following table shows
the Task Values and their descriptions.
A task is running after it has been started or resumed by a Task Control
block, with either Start New Task or Resume Task selected. A task is not
running if it has not been started or has been stopped by a Task Control
block, with Stop Current Task or Stop Other Task selected. A task is
suspended if it has been paused by a Task Control block, with Stop
Dispatcher selected.
Runtime Fault Status
The Runtime Fault option displays the current value of the Runtime_fault
system variable at the operator interface . The value displayed indicates
the specific runtime fault that occurred.
Show Firmware ID
The Show Firmware ID option sends the motion controller’s operating
system firmware number to the operator interface serial port.
Use the Show Firmware ID type to identify the current operating system
firmware in the motion controller when you are debugging a GML
Commander diagram. You must refer to this firmware number when you
report a problem, and to identify whether a motion controller is using the
most recent firmware.
