| | | - Description
| | |
| | - Environment variable for path for panel definitions
| |
| - Module name
|
- Module number
First letters
First letters refer to the first 2 characters in the panel, the control and data file names.
Name
Defines the title of the application.
Read/Write permission
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The user has read-only access to data files. That is, the user has access to all functions but cannot alter or update them. |
1 | The user has both read and write access to data files. All functions can be used and all data can be altered or updated. |
Date format
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The date format is controlled by a parameter in M3 SWB. |
1 | ISO format YYYYMMDD (for example, 19981224). |
2 | NORDIC format DDMMYYYY (for example, 24121998). |
3 | US format MMDDYYYY (for example, 12241998). |
Versions
M3 SWB can handle up to 99 schedule versions of each data file.
A non-zero value in this field means that the file is associated with a defined version. In this case, M3 SWB does not automatically assign the lowest version number to this file.
Record length
Used only for direct access files (File type 1).
The value is given in half word units (2 bytes). This field should not be changed.
File type
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The file is a sequential access file. |
1 | The file is a direct access file. |
File name
To build the file name use First letters (the first 4 characters of the name of the file), the field entry, the version number and finally the extension - DAT.
For example, the path and the name of the log file is:
\MVXMovex APP11_2\SAMPLE\PMLOGS99.DAT
| | | | - Extension DAT for all data and control files
| | | |
| | | - 99 Version number (in this example a fixed version 99)
| | |
| | - LOGS Name from file name in PMINIT_.DAT file.
| |
| - PM FIRST LETTERS defined at the top of the PMINIT__.DAT
|
- Path defined through environment variable DATA
Environment variable for path to panel definitions
A 4-character environment variable can be defined in the Startup Command File and used to specify the path for locating a file.
If these fields in the Startup Command File are left blank, M3 SWB assumes that the location of the file is located in the current directory and chooses the same path as that defined at the start of the application.
File number
File description
This is the description of the file.
Module description
This is the description of the module. This text is displayed on the spool display list.
Module name
Name of the actual module. This name is used for identifying the panel definition file associated with this module.
For example, the name of the panel for daily production time is:
\MVXMovex APP11_2\PANELS\PMDPTC__.SKM
| | | | - Extension SKM for panel definitions files.
| | | |
| | | - Two underscores
| | |
| | - DPTC Name from module name in PMINIT_.DAT file.
| |
| - PM FIRST LETTERS defined at the top of the PMINIT__.DAT
