Basic Characteristics RAPID

Load Load a program module during execution
Example
Arguments
Load is used to load a program module into the program memory during execution.
The loaded program module will be added to the already existing modules in the program
memory.
Load ram1disk \File:="PART_A.MOD";
Load the program module PART_A.MOD from the ram1disk into the program
memory. ( ram1disk is a predefined string constant "ram1disk:").
Load FilePath [\File]
FilePath Data type: string
The file path and the file name to the file that will be loaded into the program
memory. The file name shall be excluded when the argument \File is used.
[\File] Data type: string
Program execution
When the file name is excluded in the argument FilePath then it must be defined
with this argument.
Program execution waits for the program module to finish loading before proceeding
with the next instruction.
To obtain a good program structure, that is easy to understand and maintain, all loading
and unloading of program modules should be done from the main module which is
always present in the program memory during execution.
After the program module is loaded it will be linked and initialised. The initialisation
of the loaded module sets all variables at module level to their init values. Unresolved
references will be accepted if the system parameter for Load is set (BindRef = NO).
However, when the program is started, the teach pendant function Program/File/Check
program will not check for unresolved references if the parameter BindRef = NO.
There will be a run time error on execution of an unresolved reference.
