B.10 GROUP Create and Manipulate Groups

A group is a set of log specifiers and configuration parameters that are normally used together in a specific scenario. When a group is executed, information contained in a group is mapped into a series of receiver commands which has the same effect as entering the commands individually. The group can then be viewed as a “batch file” for the configuration of a specific set of receiver parameters.

A maximum of nine groups is supported. Upon creation, the group is added to the group table which is stored in non-volatile memory (NVM – which is preserved through a complete power failure). Any modifications to the group parameters are also immediately stored in the NVM.

If a group named "POWERUP" is defined, this group's log specification is executed with groupuse start powerup file upon first acquisition of time after a powerup with a power button, or COM activity on COM1 or COM2, or after powerup with a freset, and excludes any other pending activity.

The group command allows you to create and manipulate groups. Configuration of group parameters is handled by commands described in GROUP Create and Manipulate Groups on Page 95 to GROUPLOG Edit Group Logging Specifications on Page 111.

The group add groupname1 command creates a group named groupname1 and adds it to the group table. A maximum of nine groups is supported; the group add command fails if a group needs to be added and nine groups already exist (that is, the group table is full).

The group del groupname1 command deletes the group named from the group table (and also from NVM). This operation is not reversible.

The group clear command deletes all groups from the group table (and also from NVM). This operation is not reversible.

The group copy groupname1 groupname2 command copies group information from group groupname1 to group groupname2. If a group named groupname2 already exists, it is overwritten by groupname1. This operation is not reversible.
