Verification Listing Variables

The $COLCRD Variable

\textbf{{\char36}COLCRD}

Column coordinate position type

Type: Numeric, Read/Write

The $COLCRD variable indicates the current coordinate type that are displayed in the columns of the verification listing.

0:

Coordinates expressed in Joint frame

1:

Coordinates expressed in Machine frame

2:

Coordinates expressed in WCS frame

The $COLDAT Variable

\textbf{{\char36}COLDAT}\textbf{(}\mathit{index}\textbf{)}

Column numeric data

Type: Numeric, Read/Write

The $COLDAT array defines the current value to display for each column in the verification listing. Each array position contains the value for one column. Only user defined columns 24 through 28 should be modified. Numeric column data is only output when the corresponding $COLFMT array position is set to values from 0 through 8.

The $COLFMT Variable

\textbf{{\char36}COLFMT}\textbf{(}\mathit{index}\textbf{)}

Column format (–1:off, 0-8:value, 10:text)

Type: Numeric, Read/Write

The $COLFMT array defines the content format of each column in the verification listing. Each array position represents the format for one column. Only user defined columns 24 through 28 should be modified. Setting the column format to –1 inhibits output of the column. Values from 0 through 8 indicate that numeric data is to be output in the column and also defines the number of fractional digits to show for numeric values. Setting the column format to 10 indicates that text data is to be output (see $COLTXT).

The $COLINCR Variable

\textbf{{\char36}COLINCR}

Column coordinate positioning mode

Type: Numeric, Read/Write

The $COLINCR variable indicates the current absolute or incrementation positioning mode that are used to display coordinates in the columns of the verification listing.

0:

Coordinates expressed in absolute mode

1:

Coordinates expressed in incrementation mode

The $COLTXT Variable

\textbf{{\char36}COLTXT}\textbf{(}\mathit{index}\textbf{)}

Column text data

Type: String, Read/Write

The $COLTXT array defines the current string to display for each column in the verification listing. Each array position contains the text for one column. Only user defined columns 24 through 28 should be modified. String column data is only output when the corresponding $COLFMT array position is set to 10.

The $HDLINE Variable

\textbf{{\char36}HDLINE}

User defined header for verification listing

Type: String, Read/Write

The $HDLINE variable defines a header line at the top of the verification listing. If the header is defined as $NULL (the default) or blank, its output to the verification listing is suppressed. Text defined for the header line may be justified using the ~ character. The first ~ character encountered in the header line specifies that the text following should be centered. The second ~ encountered indicates that the text following should be right justified. Some examples are shown below:

this is left justified
~this is centered
~~this is right justified
this is left justified~and centered
~this is centered~and right justified
this is left justified~centered~and right justified
The $PPRINT Variable

\textbf{{\char36}PPRINT}

Last listing comment string output

Type: String, Read-only

The $PPRINT variable holds the last listing comment string output by the post-processor via a PPRINT command.

The $TRLINE Variable

\textbf{{\char36}TRLINE}

User defined trailer for verification listing

Type: String, Read/Write

The $TRLINE variable defines a footer line, also referred to as a trailer line, at the bottom of the verification listing. If the footer is defined as $NULL or blank, its output to the verification listing is suppressed. Text defined for the footer line may be justified using the ~ character as described for the $HDLINE variable.
