    OSP5000M-G subprogram names. not covered yet

    I started a new thread so my question is more defined.
    I have been through the forums and I seem to have found some issues with subprogram names that aren't working but should.

    Work: OT
    OL
    ORT
    Don't work: OR

    Why does OT and OL work but OR not?

    Also, OC516 and O516C do not. I saw a post that said OCH12 worked but why not OC516? I really need to figure out how to get 1 letter and 3 numbers to work after the initial O. O5161 and O5162 will not work for a description. I need to get a C or P worked in there before or after the 516. Any help is appreciated. thanks!

    OR will not work because it is a reserved word.
    i.e. OR is an expression that is used to test if bit xx "OR" bit yy is equal to a certain state.

    Usually a Subprogram name is limited to 4 characters after the letter "O" (oh).
    Usually if you start of a subprogram name with a digit you must use only digits.
    If you start with a Alpha character you should be able to use any combination of Letters or numbers after the first Letter.
    As for why "OC516" does not work...? What alarm/Error comes up?
    Regards
    Brian.
