Understanding the configuration system

The RhythmPad system can be operated in many different ways and modes. These

are all configurable to suit the users requirements. To ensure and maintain quality

Cardiocity Limited only release one version of software which can be configured by

the user to operate in a wide range of settings. To customise the RhythmPad system

to the user's requirements a configuration file is used. The file that allows the user to

configure the system is called config.xml and is an XML file. Extensible Markup

Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding

documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. It is

defined by the W3C's XML 1.0 Specification and by several other related

specifications, all of which are free open standards. The config.xml file that controls

the RhythmPad system's operation can be found typically at:

C:\Program Files\Cardiocity\RhythmPad GP\

If the user double clicks on this file it will normally open in a browser window and

display its contents which typically look like.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

The text from line 4 <Language> through to line 23 <ShowLanguageSelection> are

the lines that control the custom configuration options for the RhythmPad system. To

edit any of these options the user must edit the XML file.

This is achieved simply by right clicking on the config.xml file and selecting the Open

With option and then choosing the Notepad program.
