TMSKEYAB Parameterization

Previous releases of CA 1 used the TMSKEYAB customer-replaceable load module to do the following:

• Sub-divide the user-area (based on the TMMUSER macro) into sub-fields.
• Define each sub-field with a unique keyword name, length, and offset into the user area (accounting field).
• Optionally display the X and Y coordinates on the old TIQ online display.

The TMSKEYAB module could also be updated to do the following:

• Add user-written programs to the BATCH-ID table (so that updates to the TMC from user-written programs could be tracked).
• Add new robotic systems to the ROBOT-TYPE table.

Updates to TMSKEYAB are being replaced by the CAI.CTAPOPTN TMOKEYxx configuration member.

Changes to TMSKEYAB are re-installed after the initial CAIRIM processing with an IPL. Any changes to the keyword table must be installed using TMSINIT and a TMOKEYxx member.

If the CAI.CTAPOPTN keyword table member processed by TMSINIT contains at least one valid table definition, those definitions are installed and replace the default.
