Abstract
System and method for utilizing drawing specifications for use in motion control. Elements in a drawing specification may be automatically identified. The drawing specification may include one or more drawings, digital files, AutoCAD drafting files, and/or drawing specifications. Code may be automatically generated based on the one or more elements in accordance with a schema, and may include instructions in a data representation language, e.g., a markup language such as HTML, XML, etc. The automatically generated code may include move operations, e.g., arc, contour, line, raise, lower, halt, begin, etc., with associated parameters, e.g., move constraints, digital outputs, position compares, etc. The schema may include one or more blocks, each associated with a portion of the drawing specification, one or more elements, each associated with a block, one or more move operations, each associated with an element, and one or more parameters, each associated with a move operation.
