How to Write Advanced Programs

Macro customize functions can be used for a variety of purposes depending on the content being programmed.
This section explains programming techniques that can be used together with the basic program writing
methods to widen the range of application of the macro customize functions.

Data Types Related to Processing Units

Necessity of referring
to this manual
A macro customize function program can be used to change measurement flow settings by setting or acquiring
processing unit data such as external reference data, figure data, and model data. The data access method
varies depending on the data type.
Type
External reference data
Figure data
Model data
Image data
External reference data
External reference data is used to set and acquire settings and measurement values of a processing unit.
Unique numbers are assigned to the external reference data within the processing item, and thus data can be
set and acquired by specifying the processing unit number and external reference data number.
In addition to a macro customize program, external reference data can be set and acquired from a processing
unit data setting item, processing unit data acquisition item, and a communication commands.
A processing unit data setting macro function or processing unit data acquisition macro function is used to set
or acquire external reference data from a macro customize program. Numerical data and character string
data can be set and acquired in a processing unit data setting macro function or processing unit data
acquisition macro function. However, figure data such as measurement region data, model data such as
search model and model edge data, and image data such as camera images and measurement filter images
cannot be set or acquired by this method. Refer to the figure data, model data, and image data sections.
