Screenmaker trigger to set PP to Main

Is there any way to auto set PP to main whenever a user opens a custom pendant app?

Answers

  • You could probably use the event handler for this.

  • I'm actually curious about this as well. I know how to read or write signals/(RAPID) variables by adding actions in an event handler, but how can you actually create an action that (re)sets the program pointer?
  • I'm really sorry, I personally couldn't figure this out in the end and I've ceased working on the app now
  • Hi ...

    To move the PP to the main, you can use the system output linked to any input and use the "PP Moved" status to select the task and the procedure you want to move the pointer to.
