FIGURE 5–1: Contents of a config file
Note
1.
A config file allows only certain portions of the file to be edited by a user. Changing
any other part of the file will result in the system not allowing the file to be loaded, as
the CRC computed and stored in the file would not be matched. Should you want to
edit, edit the System portion of the file only. GE Multilin, Inc. recommends editing the
“script” file (see below)
2.
File names cannot have special characters such as *#!@$^&* space and control
characters.
