PiWeb Designer / Edit Header Line

[[Jo...]]

Hi,

I looked through the help file and am not finding the proper way to change a header line (if it's possible). I created a copy of the standard protocol.ptx. For this, lets say I want to change "variant" to  read "cavity" on the report. It looks as though there are attribute key #'s assigned to some of the standards.

Thanks!

If you just want that to say "Cavity" then you delete the variable text and type what you want. You don't need to change attribute key values or anything.

Ok. I just need the header to populate next to the line "cavity" with any number I input and show on the report...

Oh, this is one of the existing parameters. In that case, you should be able to replace the variable text with other variable text. The line you had boxed in your first picture would be ${Localization.AttributeKey.Description(41)} or you can directly type Cavity, and your actual cavity number would be called with ${Qdb.Measurement(41, -1)}

Cavity also doesn't need to be checked for measurement plan, only for run.

Thanks Thomas. So I'm assuming there is a list of these existing parameters and their associated attribute number(s)? i.e. Cavity & 41

Sort of? If you have the bubble help option enabled on Calypso proper, which is under the ? menu, then when you have the header parameter window open you can hover over a spot that will show its associated variable. There used to be a little icon that would appear, but now you have to eyeball it.

Sort of building off of this, I created a txt file with my own individual inputs @ the start of a program run. Those being Serial Number, Operator, and CMM. Mainly due to wanting to pull into Gear Pro at the same time. Calypso reads my header parameters, start of program input works fine, and I have the report header updated to reflect the PiWeb reporting target. However I cannot get it to show up in the header.

Screenshots will be attached, any help is appreciated.

 Please use steps as Thomas Gorman posted right above you. You move mouse cursor above "?" column and row of your headers and it will show popup hint what needs to be written in PiWeb protocol.

Then it should work if you have filled this header value in start parameters or when running.

Can you show how your problem looks like? From posted pics it looks fine and as it should be.

When I run my program and the calypso report comes out, all of the fields that I have put in are coming up as blank. I have verified that the correct template is being used and I even created an additional one in case the one I was using was corrupted.

Ist bei Vorbereiten-Ergebnispräsentation-Editor für Benutzerdefinierte Protokollkopfvariablen die Eingabe erlaubt  und die Zuordnung richtig?

Yes. It is better to just map them, and use the K value instead. I'd only rely on the Qdb.Property if I went beyond (10) userfields.
