Sample of Configuration Script File
A sample configuration script file is provided as part of every firmware
release. Firmware images and sample files are available free-of-charge
at:
www.GEmds.com/Resources/TechnicalSupport/
.
The name of the specific file includes the firmware revision number,
represented by the “x” characters in the following example:
mercury-config-x_x_x.txt
.
Editing Configuration Files
Once a Remote unit’s operation is fine-tuned, use the
Configuration
Scripts Menu on Page 131
to save a copy of the configuration onto a PC.
Once the file is saved on the PC, you can use it as a source to generate
modified copies adjusted to match other devices. Modify the configura-
tion files using a text editor or an automated process. (These applica-
tions are not provided by GE MDS).
We recommend that you review and update the following parameters for
each individual unit. Change other parameters as necessary. Save each
resulting file with a different name. We recommend using directories
and file names that reflect the location of the unit to facilitate later iden-
tification.
