Keywords:

ALPHA LOG ALPHA FILE

Description:

Lets the user save the alpha display information to a text file. Two types of output are available, depending on the command used.

  • ALPHA LOG enables the contents of either or both of the COMMANDS and REQUESTS alpha regions to be written to a file.

  • ALPHA FILE enables the contents of the REQUESTS regions only to be written to file.

The ALPHA LOG and ALPHA FILE commands may be used to save data such as the results of a data consistency check, or be used as a general output facility.

Note:
After an ALPHA file has been opened, subsequent output will be directed to both the file and the screen until the file is closed, or until the user changes to another AVEVA E3D Design module.

Example:

ALP LOG /LF1 COMMANDS

Log information displayed in the COMMANDS region in file /LF1.

ALP LOG /LF1 OVER COMM

Log information displayed in the COMMANDS region in file /LF1. Any existing file /LF1 will be overwritten.

ALP LOG /LF2

Log information displayed in both alpha regions in file /LF2.

ALP FILE /LF2

Log information displayed in REQUESTS region only.

ALP LOG END
ALP FILE END

Finish logging data.
