Action callFunction
This action allows to let the PLC execute system functions. The action takes place also if the pages have been executed by a remote session.The available functions are:PrintScreen
The active page is sent to the active printer, configured on target.By setting the parameter with “remote_send,user,password” it’s possible to send the screenshot to a remote system connected. Please see chapter “Remote pages – Remote pages print management”.PrintScreenJpg
It creates a screenshot for the active page and saves it inside the folder /ata0a/export, with automatic name and prefix “SCRSHOT_” and extension “jpg”.
It can have an optional parameter “functionparam”, which specifies a custom name for the file. The custom name is added to the prefix “SCRSHOT_”. If the automatic numbering is still needed, it can be used by adding the string“%d”. Examples of correct parameters:
MYNAME
MyName
myname_%d
The custom name can also be changed at runtime by calling the PLC GFB_SYS 715. The GFB_SYS always overrides the page parameter.
