Specifying the file

Proceed as follows to create a new table type:

Define a new file extension (System/ProgramManager/CfgFileType).

Create a table configuration (System/TableSettings/CfgTableProperties).

Create a column configuration (System/TableSettings/Columns).

Create a new table using the file manager.

Insert rows into the table with the table editor.

The extension determines the type of table. The following constraints apply:

Maximum length of three characters

Only numbers or capital letters are permitted (this means no blank spaces

or special characters).

Do not use extensions that are already used for other tables or files.

In the configuration editor, under

System/ProgramManager/CfgFileType and

System/TableSettings/CfgTableProperties check whether the desired

extension appears. The desired extension should not already appear here.

The new file extension must be entered in the configuration data so that a

table with this extension can be opened by the table editor:

Enter the code number 95148.

Press the CONFIG DATA soft key.

Select the object System/ProgramManager/CfgFileType.

Press the INSERT soft key.

Select MP_unitOfMeasure.

If you want to be able to choose if the table or file is to contain values in mm

or in inches (specified by soft key when opening a new file), enter

"UNIT_MMINCH."

Select MP_standardEditor.

Select the input value TABLE EDITOR.

Activate the parameters MP_alternateEditor and MP_fileSize as optional

MP_alternateEditor defines an alternative editor for files whose size

exceeds the size defined in MP_fileSize.

Activate the optional parameters MP_softkeyIcon and

MP_softkeyIconVariant.

An icon can be used instead of a text in the table editor if, in addition, the

parameter MP_choice (TableSettings/Columns/CfgColumnText) is defined.

Optionally, use MP_protect to protect the file type from editing.

Disables filtering or editing of a file type.

Save the information with the END or SAVE soft key.
