Definition
A command is a part of a track with the following general properties:
• Command type
Each Command type defines the function of the command. The identi-
fication of the command type (short description in capital letters) can-
not be changed.
• Command name
Each command has got a selectable command name. It has to be
unambiguous within the method.
Note
In case a command has been renamed afterwards, the cross references to this
command (e.g. command variables) are adjusted automatically.
• Command parameters
The number and type of command parameters depend on the com-
mand type and can be edited in the command properties window.
• Commands in the sequence
Commands within the same track are carried out one after the other.
Appearance
Commands are displayed double-spaced. The first row contains the name of the
command type (e.g.

command name. The default command name is composed of the command type
and a consecutive number.
The command types are structured by the following colors:
