Hi everyone
I'm busy writing a VB macropump to sort my spindle and laser operations out.
I am trying to have one Macropump to cover several machines
Different machines have different brains files for the spindle

my question is; Is there a function to identify if a particular "Brains" file has been marked as "Active"
my backup way is to set a different userLED in each brain and use "else if" to select a code area in the macropump to select how the spindle functions. Or should I just use different macropump files.

OPen to idea's

if you are using different profilenames on your machines you can
identify it by using:

GetActiveProfileName

if you are using different screensets on your machines you can
identify it by using:

GetActiveScreenSetName

just some "other" ideas

Hi
brilliant tied to profiles should do the trick, I have several machines and am developing a modbus pick and mix for control stations, using macropump because of the problems I am having with manual spindle run, and one file fits all would save me from getting things mixed up.

many thanks your help is much appreciated; I owe you a pint
