3.10 DICOR

3.10 DICOR

Calling sequence : CALL DICOR (IDNNUM, X, Y, Z, IDSNUM, IEXIT, IUNT)

Purpose : To enter a nodal co-ordinate data record.

Parameters :

In

IDNNUM	Node identification Number (Integer)
X		X - co-ordinate (Real)
Y		Y - co-ordinate (Real)
Z		Z - co-ordinate (Real)
IDSNUM	Local axis system identification Number for degrees of freedom at the node (Integer)
IUNT	Temporary file channel number (Integer)

Out

IEXIT

Error condition (Integer)

Use : This routine is called once for each node attached to a valid FEMVIEW element type, present in the model, to enter its co-ordinates. One node is processed at a time. Co-ordinates must be expressed in the global co-ordinate system. Co-ordinate data expressed in a local system must be transformed to the global system prior to being entered.

Co-ordinate information for nodes not connected to valid FEMVIEW elements, or any element, can be entered but they may affect the scaling of a picture within FEMVIEW.

The data has to be entered in ascending node order.

Co-ordinate data cannot be appended to an existing model.

The local axis system identifier is set either to zero (meaning no local axis system is active) or to an identification number which refers to a local system defined using routine DILXC.

Errors : The error condition is indicated by the value of IEXIT.

IEXIT

Meaning

0		Successful call
32		Current error must be cleared up first
131		Cannot enter nodal co-ordinates, current dataset is : (KEY )
211		Invalid temporary file unit number (iunt)
212		Node identification numbers not in ascending order
213		Node identification numbers cannot be less than 1
215		Node id above 99999 not allowed for 5 digit character file
216		Error in writing to temporary file on unit (iunt)
253		System id numbers cannot be less than 0
254		System id numbers above 999999 invalid
255		System id above 99999 invalid for character file
