Check for Sequence Running via Model

[~jiggawax~]

The attached immage shows how to determine the steptype name.

I've also attached a simple example that demonstrates how to filter step names.  Let me know if this makes sense.

Hi Jigg,

Is there a way to find out whether or not a sequence or step is main of the Main Sequence and in the Main block?

[~jiggawax~]

Yes.  Inside the callback use RunState.Caller.StepGroup

0 = Setup

1 = Main

2 = Cleanup

Hope this hleps,

I should point out that it is probably safer to use the constants:

StepGroups

Use the following constants with this data type:

• StepGroup_Cleanup–(Value: 2) Specifies the Cleanup step group.
• StepGroup_Main–(Value: 1) Specifies the Main step group.
• StepGroup_Setup–(Value: 0) Specifies the Setup step group.

Purpose

Returns the step group in which the step currently resides.

Remarks

If the step is not currently inserted in a sequence, accessing this property returns an error.

Also, of note is that instead of Caller.StepGroup  You could use RunState.Caller.Step.StepGroup

So do a compare like this RunState.Caller.StepGroup == StepGroup_Main
