6.4.1.3
Rules in the ini File Structure for the Tables of Parameter Value
Construct
The ini file allows you to add/modify parameters in tables. When using tables, Read-Only
parameters are not uploaded, since the Read-Only parameters cause an error when trying
to download the uploaded file. Therefore read-only parameters should not be included in
tables in the ini file. Consequently, tables are uploaded with all parameters having at least
one of the following permissions:
Write
Create
Maintenance write
The 'format-line' rule defines which fields of the table are to be modified by the given ini file
(this may vary among ini files for the same table). The 'format-line' must only include fields,
which can be modified (which are all parameters that are not specified as read-only).
One exception is the index-fields, which are ALWAYS mandatory fields. In the 'Table of
Parameter Values Example - Remote Management Connections' above, all fields except
the 'Time Connected' field are uploaded.
6.4.1.3.1 Tables Structure Rules
Tables are composed of four elements:
Table-Title - The Table's string name in square brackets (e.g., [ MY_TABLE_NAME ]).
Format Line - This line specifies the table's fields by their string names.
•
The first word MUST be "FORMAT", followed by indices field names, and after '='
sign, all data fields names should be listed.
•
Items must be separated by ',' sign.
•
The Format Line must end with ';' sign.
Data Line(s) - The actual values for parameters are specified in each Data line. The
values are interpreted according to the format line. The first word must be the table's
string name.
•
Items must be separated by a ',' sign.
•
A Data Line must end with a ';' sign.
End-of-Table-Mark: Marks the end of a table. Same as Table title, but string name is
preceded by '\'.
Below is an example of the table structure in an ini file.
