Automatic Batch File Execution


---
 Share

Recommended Posts

I'm running Calypso 2023, and I'm running into an issue on my offline seat where I cannot get either the report_end.bat or inspection_end.bat to trigger. I have tried moving it to just about every location I can think of, and it just will not auto trigger. 

I can manually open the file, and I can trigger it via PCM, but I cannot get it to behave the way it is intended to function. 

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I noticed in the newer versions of the PCM manual they've changed the section that mentions the batch files to remove all mention of them. You're confirming my suspicion that they removed the functionality....Hopefully I'm wrong.

You could use a report_end_pcm.txt to trigger your report_end.bat file at the same time you expect it as a workaround...

Yesterday I had a problem for which I had installed a workaround in form of an auto batch file (inspection_post_load.bat) already years ago. The problem doesn't matter here, but it occured when editing programs on different machines. So I went to see if the batch triggers on all our machines. It did. We use Calypso 2023. So the functionality is still there. Don't you ever dare to remove it, Zeiss! Ya hear me? :classic_blink:

Yeah, so after using the report_end_pcm.txt to trigger the batch file, now I'm able to natively use the report_end or inspection_end batch files without the need of the report_end_pcm.txt file. 

Maybe it was gremlins. Hahaha.

That's good to hear because I JUST rolled out a plant wide change using report_end.bat to move modified versions of the chr files to a network location for a database... Had me nervous that they were removing the ability.

Hey guys regarding the report_End.bat where does this file need to be stored for it to trigger properly?

In inspection plan folder for individual, or in main inspection folder for every program. At least someone was talking about that - maybe i have that mixed up with pcm.
