#PDEST precision-point function #PDEST precision-point function Syntax #PDEST Function Return a precision-point value representing the planned destination location for the current robot motion. Usage Considerations The #PDEST function returns information for the robot selected by the task executing the function. If the eV+ system is not configured to control a robot, use of the #PDEST function does not generate an error because of the absence of a robot. However, the information returned by the function may not be meaningful. The name "pdest" cannot be used for a variable or a program.
Details The #PDEST function can be used to determine the robot's destination before its motion was interrupted. The #PDEST function is equivalent to the DEST transformation function and can be used interchangeably with DEST, depending upon the type of location information that is desired. Please refer to the description of the DEST function for more information on the use of both the #PDEST and DEST functions.
