Compare 2 dates and/or times and trigger a bit if they are equal

 

 

Here is the script used

#include "MacroInit.h"
//#include "subFun1.c" //Example
void Macro_main(IN *p)
{

// Structure for representing a date
typedef struct {
int minute;
int hour;
int day;
int month;
int year;
} Date;

// Function to compare two dates

if ((currentDate.year == targetDate.year) &&
(currentDate.month == targetDate.month) &&
(currentDate.day == targetDate.day) &&
(currentDate.hour == targetDate.hour) &&
(currentDate.minute == targetDate.minute)) {
return 1; // true
}
return 0; // false
}
//
int minute=BCD2BIN(LocalWord[60001])； // All are in BCD format. Convert in decimal.
int hour=BCD2BIN(LocalWord[60002])；
int day=BCD2BIN(LocalWord[60003])；
int month=BCD2BIN(LocalWord[60004])；
int year=BCD2BIN(LocalWord[60005])；
//

//
// First target dates stored from LocalWord[0]
int target1Minute = LocalWord[0];
int target1Hour = LocalWord[1];
int target1Day = LocalWord[2];
int target1Month = LocalWord[3];
int target1Year = LocalWord[4];
//
Date targetDate1 = {target1Minute, target1Hour, target1Day, target1Month, target1Year};
//
// Second target dates from LocalWord[10]
int target2Minute = LocalWord[10];
int target2Hour = LocalWord[11];
