SY: the working side

SY selects which side of the panel the program works on. It is written as SY=1 directly after the header in every program the converter has seen.

Syntax

SY=<n>

VerifiedReproduced byte for byte from a machine-proven file.

Parameters

SY= Working side of the panel required

How it is written to PGM

SY becomes a record of 8 bytes: six of framing and a 16-bit value. It does not move anything. It changes what every coordinate after it means, measuring that axis from the far edge of the panel until a matching line turns it off again.

Bytes in the PGM: 8

Example

SY=1

This line is taken from the machine-proven reference program.

Notes

The value must be a whole number. SY=1.0 is refused as a parse error.
SY is optional as far as the parser is concerned; a program without it converts normally.
