mdtGotoXY (Function)

Sets the current write position. This is the position where the next write to the display will take place.

To get the actual range of (x,y) for the connected MDT, it is recommended to call mdtProfile().

Input:                

x : INT (1..28)

X position (column) - 1 is leftmost.

y : INT (1..11)

Y position (row) - 1 is topmost.

Returns: INT

Declaration:

FUNCTION mdtGotoXY : INT;
VAR_INPUT
  x : INT;
  y : INT;
END_VAR;

Example:

INCLUDE rtcu.inc
 
PROGRAM test;
VAR
  rc : INT;
END_VAR;
 
BEGIN
  ...
  // Move current position
  rc := mdtGotoXY(x := 15, y := 4);
  ...
END;
END_PROGRAM;
