All curve tables, irrespective of memory type
CTABUNLOCK()
All curve tables in the specified memory type
CTABUNLOCK(, , memType)
Other commands for calculating and differentiating between curve tables for applications for
diagnosing and optimizing the use of resources:
● Number of defined tables irrespective of memory type
CTABNO()
● Number of defined tables in SRAM or DRAM of NC memory
CTABNOMEM(memType)
● Number of possible curve tables in memory memType.
CTABFNO(memType)
● Table number of nth curve table.
General form: CTABID(n, memType)
Generates the table number of the nth curve table with memory type memType. CTABID(1,
memType) is used to read out the highest curve number (105) of the memory type specified.
CTABID(n)
Generates the table number of the nth curve table in the memory specified using the
following machine data:
MD20905 $MC_CTAB_DEFAULT_MEMORY_TYPE (default memory type for curve
tables)
CTABID(p)
Generates the ID (table number) of the curve table entered in the memory as the pth curve
table.
Note
If for example, the sequence is changed between consecutive calls of CTABID(),
then CTABID(n, ...) can be used to provide a different curve table than the one provided
before the change.
● Indicates the block state of curve table number n.
CTABISLOCK(n)
● Checks curve table number n.
CTABEXISTS(n)
● Returns the memory in which curve table number n is stored.
CTABMEMTYP(n)
● Returns the table periodicity.
CTABPERIOD(n)
● Number of curve segments already used in memory memType.
CTABSEG(memType, segType)
● Number of curve segments used in curve table number n
CTABSEGID(n, segType)
● Number of still possible curve segments in memory memType.
CTABFSEG(memType, segType)
