This is input to iccdrvr.tsk OPEN CP4L11 READ ZIMMER - open the CP whose letterbug is CP4L11. - to do READ operations only. Identify the - job as ZIMMER. (there may be printouts to - the alarm printer with this ID showing the - start and stop of the session) GET *:* SUBSET PIDA NAME LIMOPT END - get parameters NAME and LIMOPT from all PIDA - blocks in the set of blocks *:* (any compound:any block) CLOSE CP4L11 - close (and unlock) the Control Processor EXIT - EXIT iccdrvr.tsk Some Notes: - The output goesd to the Standard Output device. - In the GET command, you can get all parameters of the PIDA blocks by using: GET *:* ALL PIDA or by specifying SUBSET is is done here, and listing the specific parameters in following lines. That list ends with the line END. These three lines (ending in END) would not appear if ALL was used. - This is input to iccdrvr.tsk, so if this is used in a UNIX script, and this text was in a file, lets say, called CMDLIST, the command to use it would be something like: iccdrvr.tsk < CMDLIST This would send output to the standard out (the terminal if it is called up in a terminal session) To put the output into a file, say one called DATA.TXT, modify the command like this: iccdrvr.tsk < CMDLIST > DATA.TXT There is a command within iccdrvr.tsk to send output to a file, but i dont remember exactly what it is. - The document covering this is in the Programming section of the IA E-Doc.
