Expand any System folder to display the six System File folders contained in that System
(Source, Include, Module, User Interface, IR and Other).
Expand any System File folder to display the System File(s) contained in that folder.
Right-click on any System File folder to open the System File Folder context menu
associated with that folder type.
Right-mouse click on any System File to open the System File context menu associated
with that file type.
Double-click any code file (Master Source Code, Source Code, Module or Include) to
open that file for viewing and/or editing in a Source Code Editor window.
Double-click any TPD file to open the TPDesign3 program (if it is installed).
Double-click any TP4 file to open the TPDesign4 program (if it is installed).
Double-click any KPD file to open the KPDesign program (if it is installed).
Double-click any IR file to open the IREdit program (if it is installed).
When you add a file to a System (Project > Add File To System), the file is automatically
placed (as a link) in the appropriate System File folder, based on it's file type.
You cannot have the same file referenced more than once within a system (i.e. cannot add
the same file name to the Source folder and the Other folder within the same System).
Any file that has device-file mapping information associated with it is represented in the
Workspace tab with a "+" flag.
Click on the "+" symbol to expand the view to indicate the File Mapping Information.
You can drag and drop files from Explorer into the appropriate sub-folders within a
System.
All files are linked files associated with a system, not copies of files from one location to
another.
For the TPD/4, IR files and other source code files, you have the ability to map multiple
devices to the selected file.
The Master Source Code file will always be mapped automatically to device address
0:1:0 for NetLinx masters or 0 for Axcess masters.
You have the ability to copy a selected System folder to paste into another or the same
Project folder.
You have the ability to designate a single source code file as the Master Source Code file.
