Step 7 : Accessing in SIML to EZ Builder variables and EZ Builder Command

Invoke the execution of EZB Command In SIML

[x:EZcmd] tag

With [x:EZcmd] tag , you can execute an EZ Builder command

[x:EZcmd]ControlCommand("Speech Settings", SetVoice, "CereVoice Suzanne - French [France]")[/x:EZcmd]

A sequence of EZB commands can be invoked as in an EZB script. Each command is separated by the | separator which is interpreted as CR/LF.

[[x:EZcmd]ControlCommand("Speech Settings", SetVoiceEmphasis, "Reduced")|ControlCommand("Speech Settings", SetVoiceRate, "Medium")[/x:EZcmd]

if the command return a result this result is returned, for exemple

 [x:EZcmd]Print(GetVoltage())[/x:EZcmd]

returns the EZB voltage

You can easily with EZcmd tag set value of an EZ Builder Variable.

[x:EZcmd]$AwaitforSIML = 1[/x:EZcmd]

Access to EZ Builder variables values In SIML

[x:EZvar] tag

With [x:EZvar] tag , you can get the value of an EZ Builder variable or an empty string if the variable does not exist. Name of EZ builder variable is specified without the first $ character.

[x:EZvar Get="Direction" /] 

you get the value of the EZ Builder variable $Direction

With [x:EZvar] tag , you can also set the value of an EZ Builder variable - if the variable is not existing , it is created

[x:EZvar Set="AwaitforSIML" Value="1" /]

You can so synchronize an EZB Builder script with the setting in SIML of a variable.

The EZB script Synchro forward SIML is defined as :

WaitFor($AwaitforSIML = "1")
 Forward(140) 

User-inserted image and next : User-inserted image

SIML User variable Flagforsynchro is used only to be sure than we are awaiting really the YES GO GUY.
