  • R-30iA (V7.50)
  • R-30iB (V8.10)
  • R-30iBPlus (V9.10)
  • R-30iBPlus/CRX (V9.40/42)

If there is no corresponding subfolder, the version is (currently) not available.

If the Arg-Wizard can be used or there is a CRX plug-in this is described or explained.

Program structure

Currently the programs "TP_VIEW" and "TP_WRITE" uses a "uniform" API.

  • Simple commands are called or executed with a string containing the command name.
    • :CALL TP_VIEW('HELP');
  • Commands of same functional group have the group name separated by a dot from the command name.
    • :CALL TP_VIEW('FORCE.VIEW');
  • Commands may have (optional) parameters/arguments.
    • :CALL TP_VIEW('FORCE.VIEW',2);

tp_view

tp_view

e.g.

 :  CALL TP_VIEW('SCREEN.TRIPLE') ;
 :  CALL TP_VIEW('DIALOG.YES_NO',123) ;
 :  CALL TP_VIEW('LOAD_VIEW',3) ;
 :  CALL TP_VIEW('CLEAR_VIEW',1) ;

A CRX_PlugIn called Tablet-TP-Tools is under development.


TP_WRITE

TP_WRITE can be used to write single-line (dynamic) messages to various "screens".

tp_write

tp

Among others, the following are available for selection:

  • Console
  • UserScreen
  • TPError

The Arg-Wizard is implemented.

ArgWiz

A CRX_PlugIn called Tablet-TP-Tools is under development.


2REG

A folder with simple "one command" progs. Result is written to specified register

  • sin2REG --> sine to register
    • e.g. : CALL SIN2REG(33.5,1) ;
  • cos2REG --> cosine to register
    • e.g. : CALL COS2REG(33.5,2) ;
  • atan22REG --> atan2 to register
    • e.g. : CALL ATAN22REG((-100),100,3) ;
  • sqrt2REG --> square root to register
    • e.g. : CALL SQRT2REG(33.5,4) ;
  • rand2reg --> random to register
    • e.g. : CALL rand2reg(33.5,100,4,45) ;
    • check subfolder for info
  • ping2reg --> ping a host/IP and write result to reg
    • e.g. : CALL ping2reg('192.168.1.1',1) ;
    • needed option: User Socket Msg (R648)
      • Error INTP-320 Undefined builtin if not installed
    • Result value 1 : successfull ping
    • Result value 0 : no successfull ping
  • ord2reg --> numeric ASCII code from given CHAR to register
    • e.g. : CALL ord2reg('ABCDE123,2,1) ;
    • will write 66 to register 1, because second(2) Char of string is 'B'
  • caller2sr / parent2sr --> writes the parent program name to given StringRegister
    • e.g. : CALL caller2sr(1) ;
    • e.g. : CALL parent2sr(10001) ;
    • will write the program name of calling tp program to register 1

2REG

RAND2REG

Generates a (pseudo) random number and writes the value into the corresponding register.

Uses $FAST_CLOCK to initialize, but can also be configured.
