Add language definition (XML-Datei)
The language range of the Deutschmann Script language is continually expanded. The Script-Revision [...] (number in square brackets after the version specification) indicates which level is supported by the device firmware and the Protocol Developer . The language definition is organized into XML files. New language definitions can be installed in the Protocol Developer as follows.
- Put the XML-file (z. B. ScriptRev*.xml) in the program folder.
- Via menue item "Options" --> "Settings" the window "Settings" opens.
- Here the menue item "ConfigFiles" has to be selected.
- In the following window, the desired configuration file can be selected or loaded via the '"add"' button and confirmed with the '"OK"' button.
- Das nachfolgende Fenster (Restart required) muss über die Schaltfläche "OK" bestätigt und der Protocol Developer neu gestartet werden.
Adapt existing script to another Fieldbus or Industrial Ethernet system
Possible procedure:
- The existing script must be compared with the corresponding script template (template) of the Protocol Developer regarding the bus-specific parameters. These are marked in the script templates (Template) with „!!!“.
- Via menu item „File“ -> „New“ -> „Source“ -> „Template“ can be called the corresponding script template.
- If the bus-specific parameters are identical, the script must not be adapted. However this applies only if at the initalization of the bus (:InitFieldbus;) further bus-specific, optional parameters have not been inserted. If this is the case, these optional parameters have to be compared with the appropriate script template (Example) from the Protocol Developer.
- Via menu item „File“ -> „New“ -> „Source“ -> „Example“ -> „Include“ the appropriate script template can be called.
