cycleManager

Short summary

Gets or sets the cycle manager step parameters interface used for stepping configuration.

Purpose and usage

This property provides access to the underlying cycle manager step parameters interface that this stepping configurator operates on. It allows getting the current cycle manager instance and setting a new one if needed for step-specific stepping configuration.

The property is primarily used internally but can be accessed for direct parameter manipulation or when switching between different cycle manager instances at the step level.

typical usage patterns

  1. Internal initialization: Set during configurator setup
  2. Runtime switching: Change cycle manager instances
  3. Direct access: Get parameters for advanced step configuration
  4. Dependency injection: Inject different implementations

When to use

  • During initialization to connect to a cycle manager
  • When switching between different cycle manager implementations
  • For direct access to step-specific stepping parameters
  • In advanced configuration scenarios for individual steps

Example

// Get current cycle manager
VAR
currentManager : ICycleManagerStepParameters;
END_VAR

currentManager := stepSteppingConfig.cycleManager;

// Check current step stepping state
IF currentManager.currentSteppingEnabled THEN
// Stepping is enabled for current step
END_IF;

// Set new cycle manager
VAR
newManager : MyCycleManagerStepImplementation;
END_VAR

stepSteppingConfig.cycleManager := newManager;
