Providing a Name Table to Surveyor

Providing a Name Table to Surveyor

A default name table file, hosts.nam, is included with the software. Surveyor boots using this default name table. If you wish to change the start up default name table, you must edit the surveyor.ini file by following these instructions:

1.Locate the surveyor.ini file in your Windows directory.

2.Open the surveyor.ini file with your text editor software.

3.Search for this variable, NameTable=<install-directory>\hosts.nam.

4.Delete the hosts.nam text on that line.

5.Replace text with your default name table file. It should have the .nam extension.

6.Save the surveyor.ini file, exit your editor and start Surveyor application.

Address and symbolic name associations can be discovered by Surveyor. This table can be saved as a file with the .nam extension and used as the default name table. Refer to Chapter 13 for more information on the name table.

Note

The default name table can always be changed to another within the software. Click on the Name Table button and select Open. Find the name table file you want and click OK.
