DME32—Owner’s Manual
Compiling Configurations
Configurations must be compiled before they can be saved or transferred to the
DME32. Compiling translates the configuration into information that the DME32 can
understand.
Configurations can be compiled in either Edit or Cable mode.
The current configuration can be compiled as follows.
1
Click the Compile button on the Tool Bar.
Alternatively, choose Compile from the File menu, click the Compile button on the
Tool Palette, or choose Compile from the Shortcut menu.
The Compile progress indicator window appears, as shown below.
If the compilation is successful, the message “Compile Complete” appears and the com-
pilation status in the status bar changes from “Uncompiled” to “Compiled.”
2
Click OK to close the Compile progress indicator window.
The configuration can now be transferred to the DME32.
If the compilation fails, a message stating the reason appears and the compilation status
in the status bar changes to “Compile Failure.” In this case you should rectify the prob-
lem and try compiling again.
Compiling a configuration requires a small amount of DSP processing power. In some
cases, compiling may fail even though the DSP power meter does not indicate 100%.
This is because the DSP power meter displays approximate usage, and its accuracy is
affected by the type of components in the configuration and the order in which they
were added and wired.
Configurations must be compiled and transferred to the DME32 each time any changes
are made to the configuration, or when any of the following settings are changed: User
Define, GPI, Wordclock, or Parameter Link.
