[Wish] Station Logic Export & IOConnection

DenisFR

Hello,

Is it possible to add "Allow cyclic connection" properties in exported to rsxml file for each IOConnection?

And add a column for this in "I/O Connections" list.

In same time, if an option could be added to check it by default when connections are created.

DenisFR

@Maxim Riabichev : Could you do something for that?

Maxim Riabichev

Could you elaborate on what problem your wish would solve and perhaps show more clearly how you would like it to behave/look like?

Hello,

In Station Logic / Signal and Connections / I/O Connections list, you don't have "Allow cyclic connection" column.

Nether in rsxml exported file:

<Station name="" xmlns="urn:abb-robotics-robotstudio-graphiccomponent">
  <Signals>
    <IOSignal name="AnalInput" signalType="AnalogInput" value="0" />
  </Signals>
  <Connections>
    <IOConnection source="AnalInput" target="Counter.Count" />
  </Connections>
  <GraphicComponents>
    <EmbeddedLibrary source="%ABBLIBRARY%\Components\Counter.rslib" name="Counter">
      <PropertyValue name="Count" value="0" />
      <SignalValue name="Increase" value="0" />
      <SignalValue name="Decrease" value="0" />
      <SignalValue name="Reset" value="0" />
    </EmbeddedLibrary>
  </GraphicComponents>
</Station>

Should be:

<IOConnection source="AnalInput" target="Counter.Count" allowcc="True" />

For the option, I hope its clear.

Very nice, I'll look into it!

Thank you.

Hello,

Still missing column in I/O Connection table.

Hello Denis,

Since it is possible to check the Allow cyclic connection via the Edit-window, R&D has decided to prioritize other functionality requests at this time.

Perhaps we can return to this request in the future.

Thanks!
