The following special commands control output to the system terminal. For all these
commands, which are called control characters, the control (Ctrl) key on the terminal is held
down while a letter key is pressed. The letter key can be typed with or without the Shift key.
Unlike other V+ commands, control characters do not need to be completed by pressing the
Enter or Return key.
Ctrl+C Aborts some commands (for example, DIRECTORY, LISTP, I/O).
If any input has been entered at the keyboard since the current
command was initiated, then the first Ctrl+C cancels that pending input
and the second Ctrl+C aborts the current command.
Ctrl+C cannot be used to abort program execution. Enter the ABORT or
PANIC command at the keyboard to stop the robot program or press one
of the panic buttons to turn off Robot Power.
Ctrl+S Stops output to the monitor or terminal so it can be reviewed. The
operation producing the output is stopped until output is resumed by
Ctrl+Q.
Ctrl+Q Resumes output to the monitor or terminal after it has been stopped with
a Ctrl+S.
Ctrl+O Suspends output to the ASCII terminal even though the current
operation continues (that is, the output is lost). This is useful for
disregarding a portion of a lengthy output. Another Ctrl+O will cause the
output to be displayed again.
NOTE: This output control command works only with the ASCII
terminal.
The Ctrl+O condition is canceled automatically when the current
operation completes, or if there is an input request from an executing
program.
Ctrl+W Slows output to the monitor or terminal so it can be read more easily. A
second Ctrl+W will terminate this mode and restore normal display
speed.
The Ctrl+W condition is canceled automatically when the current
operation completes or if there is an input request from an executing
program.
Ctrl+Z If typed in response to a program prompt, terminates program execution
with the message *Unexpected end of file*. This is sometimes useful for
aborting a program.
Ctrl+U Cancels the current input line. Useful if you notice an error earlier in the
line or you want to ignore the current input line for some other reason.
