Parameters

oProject

Project from which data to macro will be taken. Can't be null.

oFileNames

List of full paths to Rittal Automation NC files used to import data. Only files with extensions: *.PBT, *.PVB and *.PKU are used. Can't be null.

strOutputDirectory

Output directory for user defined contours. If null or empty by default $MD_MACROS is used. If directory is passed then it must exists.

nCountoursImported

(Ref) Number of generated user defined contours files.

Return Value

The import of drilling information from Rittal Automation NC files encompasses the files with file extensions: *.PBT, *.PVB and *.PKU.

With this method only drilling patterns for individual items can be generated, not however complete mounting panels from RittalAutomation item files (*.PBT or *.PVB).

A user-defined outline is created from a Rittal Automation outline file (*.PKU). A "NC Rittal Automation" record is already assigned to this outline. After the import you create a drilling pattern with drill type "User-defined outline" that uses the outline created by the import of the PKU file in the parts management.

This method uses a scheme called Standard when exporting the Rittal Automation NC data.
