SceneVision Configuration File
The SceneVision configuration file, dsModel.cfg, can be found in the ‘bin’ directory – typically
in C:\Program Files\DeltaSphere\bin (or wherever the DeltaSphere software was installed). This
is a text file that can be edited to change various default values. The values can also be changed
and saved in the Preferences entry of the File menu. A typical configuration file is listed below.
