Terminology and File System

Files

The standard distribution of config comes with a set of support files as follows…

Config_xxx.exe

This is the main config program.

*.sll, *.dll, *.tkn

These files are part of the config program.

config.env

The config program environment file containing PC

 

installation and configuration data.

default.cfg

The default control system configuration file.

scriptxx.scr

Script files. These are empty and are modified by the user.

My_reference.htm

An html file containing any reference information about

 

your system such as control codes, site info etc.

SRS Command List.htm

This is the list of all built-in commands for the control

 

system.

Configuration file (*.cfg)

An ascii text file that contains one or more of the configuration parameters for a particular control system. The configuration file is named yourfilename.cfg where yourfilename is whatever you like. This file can be hand generated but it is hundreds of lines long so it is generated by the config program automatically. When you select “file” then “save as” from the top menu, you have a dialog box that lets you generate a config date file. Enter the name you want in the config file box. Then, click “apply” then click “generate”. The config program will generate the complete configuration file for you based on the current settings you have entered in the various configuration windows.

To load in a saved config file, enter the config file name in the top left field on the main page and click “load”. You can also click “browse” to look for a file. This will read the configuration file and load it into all the fields. You can then either edit the configuration and save it again or download it to the control system.

You can have as many configuration files as you like. Typically one per control system but you may have various versions depending on what your needs are.

When you look at the contents of the config file, you will see three types of data: a comment, a configuration switch and configuration data.
