‘;’ - the semicolon character means the beginning of a comment. All characters from „;„ to the
end of line are ignored. Comment can be on individual line or in the end of definition line.
Note:
Label names can contain all characters except ‘[‘ and ‘]’. The label names are analyzed
as non case sensitive, i.e. character ‘a’ is same as ‘A’, ‘b’ is same as ‘B’ etc..
All address and byte number values in input file are hexadecimal.
Allowed address value size is from 1 to 4 bytes.
Allowed size of data arrays in one line is in range from 1 to 64 bytes. When there are
two data arrays in one line, the sum of their size in bytes can be maximally 80 bytes.
Be careful to set correct addresses. Address must be defined inside device start and
device end address range. In case of address out of range, warning window appears
and serialization is set to disabled (None).
Address for Serialization is always assigned to actual device organization and buffer
organization that control program is using for current device. If the buffer organization is
byte org. (x8), the Serialization Address will be byte address. If the buffer organization is
wider than byte, e.g. 16 bit words (x16), the Serialization Address will be word address.
Example of typical input file for Classic From file serialization:
[nav 1 ] A7890 78 89 56 02 AB CD ; comment 1
[nav 2 ] A7890 02 02 04 06 08 0A
[nav 3 ] A7890 08 09 0A 0B A0 C0 ; comment 2
[nav 4 ] A7890 68 87 50 02 0B 8D
[nav 5 ] A7890 A8 88 59 02 AB 7D
;next line contains also second definition
[nav
6 ] A7890 18 29 36 42 5B 6D , FFFF6 44 11 22 33 99 88 77 66 55 16
; this is last line - end of file
In the example file six serial values with labels „nav1“, „nav2“, ...“nav6“ are defined. Each
value is written to buffer on address $A7890. All values have size 6 bytes. The line with
„nav6“ label has also second value definition, which is written to buffer on address $FFFF6
and has size 10 bytes, i.e. the last byte of this value will be written to address $FFFFF.
Note: Address for Serialization is always assigned to actual device organization and buffer
organization that control program is using for current device. If the buffer organization is byte
org. (x8), the Serialization Address will be byte address. If the buffer organization is wider
than byte, e.g. 16 bit words (x16), the Serialization Address will be word address.
Device / Device options / Serialization / Playlist From file mode
When you use a Playlist From-file mode the serialization file has not serial values directly
included. The file contains name list of external files that contain serialization data.
Serialization data are then read from these external data files, each file means one
serialization step (one device programmed). Playlist From-file mode is indicated in main
window and info window of PG4UW control program on panel "Serialization" as "
From-file-
pl " serialization.
