THE FILE EDITOR:
One important function of the Wi-Fi Bridge is its powerful file Editor. It can be accessed by
clicking the “File
Editor” button present on some of the Bridge’s web pages
. The file editor utility is an open source javascript
editor that can run on any modern browser. However, due to its size, it is not located in the Wi-Fi Bridge itself.
Instead, the browser fetches it from a public repository on the internet when it is invoked. Therefore,
to use
this function, the client PC or device that is accessing the Wi-Fi Bridge has to have internet access.
Only text
files are available for viewing/editing or downloading. Selecting a files from the file list on the leftside of the
window causes the editor to load the file on the screen.
In this example, “
Program2.txt
” was selected. This file
is generated with command “
P2S
”
issued on
Bridge’s main web page
.

Standard file names and descriptions:
The Wi-Fi bridge has a simple built in File System that stores files necessary for the bridge configuration, its
Web interface and other programs for communicating with an oven. For security reasons, only .txt files are
displayed.
readme.txt:
almost same as the Help command, but may contain revision information and other tips
YYYYMMDD.txt
: Log files are saved with this file name convention: YYY is the Year, MM is the month, DD is
the day). If logging is enabled, the current file is closed at midnight and a new file is created to continue
logging operations.
Programn.txt
: Program files contain program patterns
. Generated by ‘PnS’ commands or upload from PC
using this file editor page. These files are stored on the Wi-Fi bridge and not on VS-4 controller. If the file has
been modified, the operator must load that file into VS-4 controller before it can be used. Use API command
“PnL” to upload Program file ‘n’ into VS
-4.
Or use command “RUN np”, which does that automatically.
