ABORT monitor command ABORT monitor command Syntax ABORT task Function Terminate execution of an executable program. Usage Considerations ABORT does not force DETACH or FCLOSE operations on the disk, serial, or network communication logical units. If the program has one or more files open and you decide not to resume execution of the program, you should use a KILL command to close all the files and detach the logical units. Parameters task Optional real value, variable, or expression (interpreted as an integer) that specifies which program task is to be terminated. (See below for the default.
See the eV+ Operating System User's Guide for information on tasks.) Details Terminates execution of the specified active program after completion of the step currently being executed. If the task is controlling a robot, robot motion terminates at the completion of the current motion. (Program execution can be resumed with the PROCEED command.) If the task number is not specified, the ABORT command accesses task number 0. If the task being aborted was initiated with a monitor command, a completion message in the following form is displayed:
Program task # stopped at program_name, step step_number date time However, if the task was initiated from another task (with an EXECUTE program instruction), the completion message is not displayed.
