All,
What is the ZPL command to execute the ‘Convert to NSC Group’ function available via the GUI? I want to convert and save many (Monte Carlo) files in a loop.
Hi Bhousand,
I don’t think that there is such a feature in the ZPL langage. Others can correct me if I’m wrong.
You’d have to use the ZOS-API for this task, which can open the Convert to NSC tool. The ZOS-API Syntax Help has an example, example 14, which shows exactly how to do that. The excerpt from that help file reads:
# Convert file to Non-sequential mode
convertNSmode = TheSystem.Tools.OpenConvertToNSCGroup()
convertNSmode.ConvertFileToNSC = True
convertNSmode.RunAndWaitForCompletion()
convertNSmode.Close();
# Save the Non-sequential file to the Double Gauss folder
fileNameNS = dirLoc + "\\Double Gauss (NS).zmx"
TheSystem.SaveAs(fileNameNS)
Let me know if this helps.
Take care,
David
