YTerm Software Manual
• Select Print to print out the program or selected text (in the active
window) on the default printer. To change the default printer, refer to
your operating system manual.
• Mark Send Compressed to remove all "//" comments, spaces and to
delete empty lines before sending the program to the controller. Select
this again to send the program to the "as is" except for changing all "//"
comments to native SMC comments ("NO").
Note: Send Compressed is the default setting. A compressed program
will execute slightly faster.
• Select Array Mode to use the edit window to send, receive, load and
save array data. Comments are not allowed in arrays. When the Array
Mode is selected, Send Compressed is disabled. All arrays are
compressed before being sent to the controller.
• Select Find/Replace to search the program in the active window for
text. If text is highlighted before selecting this function, the selected text
will be used as the text to seek. This can also be used to replace text in
the program.
The Help Window
Figure 11: SMC HelpWindow.
The Help window provides descriptions for the SMC programming
language. Get descriptions on any command by the use of two methods:
1. When one of the two programming windows is selected, the
Help window will update to show descriptions for the com-
mand on the current line.
2. A description for any command can be viewed by entering the
two letter command in the Keywords box (Figure 11). By
clicking on the down arrow (located next to the box) a list of
available commands will appear. Select the desired command.
Scroll up and down the list with the vertical scroll bar (located
next to the list) to view keywords.
