DirCreate (FB; Prefix fildcr)

FUNCTION_BLOCK DirCreate EXTENDS CBM.ETrig

This function block creates a sub-directory in the standard directory. If the sub-directory already exists, an error message is generated. There may be restrictions concerning the specification of the directory name, e.g. only capital letters allowed, for different targets. The function ”FILE.GetProperty” shows these restrictions.

Rising edge: Action starts

Falling edge: Resets outputs

If a falling edge occurs before the function block has completed its action, the outputs operate in the usual manner and are only reset if either the action is completed or in the event of an error. In this case, the corresponding output values (xDone, xError) are present at the outputs for exactly one cycle.
