Methods


Func AddGotoPoint( iPointName) As
Add a Goto Point Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in Program firstProgram a PTP point instruction GOTO1 to the Point wich alias isMyPoint 
 Set GOTO1 = firstProgram.AddGotoPoint(MyPoint)
Func AddGotoPointfromCoordinates( iX, iY, iZ) As
Add a Goto Point Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
 The coordinates you give as input for this method have to be expressed into
 the 'Absolute Axis System' not in the 'Machining Axis System' of the Part Operation.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in Program firstProgram a PTP point instruction GOTO1 to the Point wich coordinates areX,Y,Z 
 Set GOTO1 = firstProgram.AddGotoPointfromCoordinates(X,Y,Z)
Func AddPPInstruction( iPPInstruction) As
Add a PP Instruction to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in Program firstProgram a PP Instruction PPWORD1 with textPPWORD 
 Set PPWORD1 = firstProgram.AddPPInstruction(PPWORD)
Func AddRotabl( iRotabl, iSens, ival) As
Add a Table Head Rotation instruction to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in Program firstProgram a Rotabl ROTABL1 with argumentMODE and angleANGLE1 
 Set ROTABL1 = firstProgram.AddRotabl(MODE,ANGLE1)
Func AddToolChange( iToolName, iToolType, iToolCatalog, iNumSyntaxe) As
Add a Tool Change Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in firstProgram a Tool Change Instruction with specified toolMyTool of specified type ToolTypein specified catalogToolCatalog 
 Set ToolChange1 = firstProgram.AddToolChange(MyTool,ToolType,ToolCatalog,Num)
Func AddToolChangeMultipleFeeds( iToolName, iToolType, iToolCatalog, iNumFSData, iNumSyntaxe) As
Add a Tool Change Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example create, inserts and sequences in firstProgram a Tool Change Instruction with specified toolMyTool of specified type ToolTypein specified catalogToolCatalog 
 Set ToolChange1 = firstProgram.AddToolChangeMultipleFeeds(MyTool,ToolType,ToolCatalog,NumFSData,Num)
Func AppendOperation( type, AutoSequence) As
Create and Insert a Manufacturing Operation of a specified type to a Manufacturing Program.
if AutoSequence is set to 1, the new operation will be sequenced in the Program.
Example:
The following example creates, inserts and sequences in firstProgram the manufacturing operation ManufacturingOperation of type : type 
 Set ManufacturingOperation = firstProgram.AppendOperation(Type,1)
Sub AssociateOutputCode( iFileName)
Method is used for associate APT file to V4 program iFileName = path for APT file.... Call on V4 ManufacturingProgram
Sub CompletewithPolarStrategy( iListeMfgActivity, iAxeRef, iSensRotation)
Complete a list of Operation in a Manufacturing Program in Polar Mode.
Example:
The following example complete in Program firstProgram a liste of Operation ListeMo with Reference Axis A and sens CLW 
 Call firstProgram.CompletewithPolarStrategy(ListeMo,A,CLW)
Func CreateMOfromReport( iReportSucceed, iTypeMo) As
Create a list of Operation in a Manufacturing Program, of a specified type.
Example:
The following example create in Program firstProgram a liste of Operation ListeMo with type Drilling from a CATIAExpertReportSucceedCollection ReportSucceed. 
 Set ListeMO = firstProgram.CreateMOfromReport(ReportSucceed,Drilling)
Func GetNCOutputFile() As
Get the output file (APT or ISO) associated to the program (if associated during computation).
Func GetTableCurrentAbsolutePosition( iActivityRef) As
Get the current absolute position of the Machine Table.
Example:
The following example gets in Program firstProgram the current Machine Table absolute position Angle from the Manufacturing activity reference iActivityRef 
 Angle = firstProgram.GetTableCurrentAbsolutePosition(iActivityRef)
Sub ImportNCOutputOnProgram( iType, iNCOutputFile, iPPName)
Import an NC File on a program.
Example:
The following example imports in a Program firstProgram an NC File of type TYPE available in the file path PATH using the PP PPNAME if required. 
 Call firstProgram.ImportNCOutputOnProgram(TYPE,PATH,PPNAME)
Sub InsertOperation( iReferenceOperation, iManufacturingOperation)
Insert an existing Manufacturing Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example inserts in firstProgram the manufacturing operation ExistingOperation after ReferenceOperation: 
 call firstProgram.InsertOperation(ReferenceOperation,ExistingOperation)
Sub LockActivitesWithinProgram()
Method is used for Locking and Unloking all activity in program Call on ManufacturingProgram on which Lock and Unlock want
Sub MoveOperation( iReferenceOperation, iManufacturingOperation)
Move an existing Manufacturing Operation to a Manufacturing Program.
Example:
The following example moves in firstProgram the manufacturing operation MovedOperation after the manufacturing operationExistingOperation: 
 call firstProgram.MoveOperation(ExistingOperation, MovedOperation)
Func OrderAndCreateMOfromReport( iReportSucceed, iTypeMo, iAxeRotabl, iSensRotation) As
Create a list of Operation in a Manufacturing Program, of a specified type.
Example:
The following example create in Program firstProgram a liste of Operation ListeMo with type Drilling from a CATIAExpertReportSucceedCollection ReportSucceed with Rotabl of Axis A and sens CLW. 
 Set ListeMO = firstProgram.OrderAndCreateMOfromReport(ReportSucceed,Drilling)
Sub UnlockActivitesWithinProgram()
