Overview
This section provides information about the handling of robot programs. It describes
how to:
How to create a new program when no program is available is detailed in section
Creating a new program on page
Program Editor
In FlexPendant the RAPID programs are created and edited using Program Editor
in Code.
If you toggle between the Program Editor and another view and back again, the
Program Editor will show the same part of the code as long as the program pointer
has not been moved. If the program pointer is moved, the Program Editor shows
the code at the position of the program pointer.
The same behavior applies to Advanced View in Operate.
About program files
The program is saved as a folder, named as the program, containing the actual
program file, of type pgf.
When loading a program you open the program folder and select the pgf file.
When renaming a program you rename the program folder and the program file.
When saving a loaded program which is already saved to the hard disk, you must
not open the existing program folder. Instead, you should save the program folder
again and overwrite the old version, or rename the program.
