Function Syntax

void ClockControlStart(char[] panel, char[] control);

​
Description

Starts the Clock Control designed as stop watch in the Panel Designer (setting Mode = StopWatch). The stop watch starts with 00:00:00 or 00:00 depending on the Panel Designer setting Display Seconds. The start time cannot be changed. The stop watch is updated every second. Note: The stop watch cannot be started when it is already running. The panel is accessed by its individual panel name that is entered in the Panel Designer.

​
Parameters

  • panel: Panel name, restricted to 128 characters. "" – references all loaded panels.
  • control: Name of the control, restricted to 128 characters. You can only access the control by its name. If you want to use the name of a symbol (signal or system variable), ensure the control has no name instead of the individual control’s name.
    • The form for signals is: "Signal:<signal name>".
    • The form for system variables is: "SysVar:<name of system variable>". The namespace must not be used.
    Note:
    • Symbol assignment is not case sensitive.
    • If you want to access all elements of a panel, the notation "" is used.
    Example:
    • "Signal:SleepInd"
    • "Signal:easy/MotorState/EngineSpeed"
    • "SysVar:SysVarTester" (for a system variable defined with namespace TestSysvar in the configuration)
