4.4.2Generating the system.txt Configuration File
This section describes the procedure for generating a system.txt configuration file and details any operating system specific differences in behavior among the development packages.
First, the file must contain LOCAL declarations for all modules that are to run on the host computer. At a minimum, this must include the ssdm module and the timer module. Hence, the following declarations must exist:
LOCAL | 0x20 | * | ssdm - Board interface task |
LOCAL | 0x00 | * | tim_xxx - Timer task |
LOCAL declarations are also required for any optional modules running on the host. Typically, this includes the s7_mgt protocol configuration utility and the user's own application module. It may also include any host- based protocol modules and the s7_log utility. For example:
LOCAL | 0xcf | * s7_mgt - | Management/config task | |
LOCAL | 0x2d | * upe - Example user part task | ||
LOCAL | 0x3d | * | s7_log - | Prints messages to screen/file |
LOCAL | 0x22 | * | MTP3 module | |
Once all the LOCAL declarations are in place, REDIRECT commands should be added for all modules that are logically running on the board so that any messages destined for these modules are transported via the ssdm module (module_id = 0x20).
The following REDIRECT commands are always required:
REDIRECT | 0x71 | 0x20 | * MTP2 module_id | |
REDIRECT | 0x10 | 0x20 | * | LIU module |
REDIRECT | 0x8e 0x20 | * | onboard management module | |
If ATM support is required, then the following REDIRECT commands are also required:
REDIRECT | 0x31 | 0x20 * | ATM Module |
REDIRECT | 0x41 | 0x20 * | Q.SAAL Module |
Having ensured that all modules running on the board are accessible, it is then necessary to ensure that any status indications issued from the board successfully arrive at a module running on the host. If this does not happen, the system quickly runs out of available messages for
Two module_ids (0xdf and 0xef) require redirection to a suitable process running on the host; initially these messages should be redirected to the s7_log utility that prints out a line for each message received. Ultimately, the user's own application should deal with these notifications.
REDIRECT | 0xdf | 0x3d* | LIU/MTP2 status messages | s7_log |
REDIRECT | 0xef | 0x3d* | Other indications |
