Hi All,
Here’s a little more detail for those of you who might want to add your own custom pages to PAC Manager. The attached zip file includes some .CIW examples for:
- Ethernet/IP Config info
- Firmware version list
- Status Read short version
- TCP Diag Info list
Also, here’s more detail on the correct syntax for these files:
Lines that begin with a semicolon ; are comments.
Description text and category text should be enclosed in double quotes.
%AUTO% and %DEFDEVICENAME% can be substituted in description or category text.
Special keyword lines begin with KEYWORD= where KEYWORD is:
• DELIM - SPACE, COMMA, TAB
• MENU - name that appears on Inspect Mode – Other menu button
• DEFDEVICENAME - sets the default device name for subsequent lines
• CATEGORY - line with no data, just a caption that is displayed
• BLANK - inserts a blank line into the display page
Regular lines will be parsed as six columns of data.
• Column 1: IP Address or Hostname
[INDENT]o Use dot notation ip address or a hostname.
o AUTO substitutes the current Inspect mode IP Address or Hostname
o DEFAULT substitutes the current value of DEFDEVICENAME[/INDENT]
