Description
Action
- FILE: This type of action provides for a large amount of input
values, for a specific menu, to be stored in a database which is
accessed at the time that the menu is executing. It directs the
SVMi-20i to search the specified data base file, located in the DTA
directory of the hard disk, for a match to the INPUT value.
The type of data file is pointer file that has the filename extension
of PTR respectively. This is used in applications that would
otherwise require a very large number of individual event pointers
to be programmed in a menu block.
Pointer (PTR) files are simple text files, which may be produced on
a word processor, notepad, or other editor. PTR files are stored
as .TXT files.
Each line of a pointer file appears and acts exactly like a pointer on
the SVMi-20i menu’s input processor screen. This operates as an
extension to the input pointers on the menu block. Also, a single
pointer file can be used for more than one menu block.
Type
Is the three-character abbreviation for the type of block targeted.
Below are a few examples:
- MBX represents Mailbox
- EXT represents Extension
- MNU represents Menu

Group name
Target Name Specifies the block to pass control to when the input value is
matched with the input from the defined input source.
Input Value for User Defined Event Pointers
The input value is a defined event pointer that directs the SVMi-20i to other
blocks. The input processor contains input pointers that determine which
application block receives control of the call next. Upon finding a match, it
examines the type of action specified in that pointer and passes control to
the object named in the pointer’s target. These pointers may point to an
object (with or without requiring the caller to enter a password), translate the
input value to a new value or search a large array of objects for one
matching the input value.
The input value can be any digits that are to be processed by the menu.
These can be digits dialed by the caller or digits passed from previous
blocks. The origin for these digits is determined by the contents of the ‘input
FROM…’ field.
