4.8 AREA DATABASE CONFIGURATION
An Area Database (Area 01) is preconfigured for the Enhanced Micro TDC 3000 file. It
uses the standard prebuilt data points described in Appendix A for Reports, Group
displays, etc. You may want to look through the standard configuration data shown in
subsection 4.7.2. If you loaded the standard points and do not need to change the Area
Database configuration at this time, skip to subsection 4.9.
Area Database Configuration is accomplished through the activities listed on the Area
Configuration Menu, which appears when the
AREA DATA BASE
target is selected on the
Engineering Main Menu. Reference information for these activities is in Area Form
Instructions in the Implementation/Engineering Operations-1 binder. Area database entities
are reserved entities that are built with the Data Entity Builder (DEB). Detailed DEB
procedures are in the Data Entity Builder Manual, in the Implementation/Engineering
Operations - 1 binder. Paper forms SW88-579 through SW88-599 are also available to
help you.
If you want to change only one or a few Area Database functions, probably the easiest way
is to select that function on the Area Database Menu, type in the configuration you want,
then press F12 (hold down CTL and press the ~ key). Note that if you get the message
“Must Select An Area”, perform steps 1 through 5 in 4.8.1.
If you want to rebuild the Area Database, Task 29 in the System Startup Guide, in the
Implementation/Startup & Reconfiguration - 1 binder, provides step-by-step instructions
for a first-time configuration of an area database for a system that has not yet been started
up (Tasks 1 through 28 are prerequisites).
4.8.1 Install the Area Database
If you made/loaded changes to the standard data base, the system will have created a
working file. You must now install that file as follows—
1. If any Area Configuration function or the Area Menu is on screen, press the CMND
key. If not, select BUILDER COMMANDS on the Engineering Main Menu.
2. Select SELECT AREA.
3. Key into the Reference Pathname port:
NET>&D01>
4. Select
AREA 1
.
5. Key into the CURRENT AREA DATA BASE PATHNAME (if not already there):
NET>&D01>AREA01
6. Select INSTALL AREA. The Reference Pathname port should contain:
NET>&D01>
. The Current Area Data Base Pathname and Pathname for Workfile
ports should contain
NET>&D01>AREA01
.
7. Press
ENTER
. You should see a message:
Operation Complete
.
