Tip

    • If the MOD0099QC standard menu is used:
      • open the Python Macros module and change the CHANGE_TITLE variable in the on_load method from CHANGE_TITLE=FALSE to CHANGE_TITLE=TRUE
    • If an individual user menu is used,
      • open the Python Macros module and insert the following line in the on_load method of the user menu:
      • The following lines must, like the other lines, be indented by four spaces each in the on_load method.
PID = str(os.getpid()) ppms.ui_set_system_title('Systemtitel' + ', PID: ' + PID + " - " + ppms.uvar_get("@1"))

    • The PID is part of the log file as well, so all log files can always be ascribed to the corresponding session.
