Call a Table multiple times


everhamme Aug 21, 2012 06:35 PM

Can I call the same table in two different slow sequences (for different parameters)?

E.g. I have a slow sequence that measures instrument X and another slow sequence that measures instrument Y. Both have different time intervals. Can I have a single table that has results from both slow sequences?

You can call a table from different sequences but the table will always store the same number of fields each time, i.e. the record structure is fixed, so in your case you would store a value of X and Y in both cases, unless you reuse the variables to store data from the different instruments and somehow track what the data relates to from the time.

If there is a datainterval instruction in the table, data will still only be stored once the first time that datainterval condition is true. (Generally in applications where data is stored from different sequences you do not use the datainterval instruction)

Great thanks for the reply. I'll just create two seperate tables.
