17.6 Using Removable Media to Load and Save Applications
A special file type, with a .PGM extension, is used to store XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS application programs on
microSD.
To load an application from microSD to the XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS, use the Removable Media Manager
(open the Removable Media Manager in the System Menu) to find and highlight the desired .PGM file,
and then press the Enter key.
To save an application from the XL7/XL7 PRIME
to microSD, open the Removable Media Manager in the
System Menu and press the Save Pgm
function key. The application will be saved in a file called
DEFAULT.PGM
in the microSD root directory.
NOTE:
Saving an application to microSD can only be done from the Removable Media System
Menu and is not available on a Removable Media Manager object that was placed on an
application graphics screen by Cscape.
NOTE:
Cscape can also save an application directly to a microSD card,
which is plugged into the PC’s
microSD compatible card reader by selecting the Export to Removable Media item on the Cscape File
menu.
17.7 Using Removable Media to View and Capture Screens
The XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS File System uses bitmap files with the .BMP extension or JPEG files with the .JPG
extension to store XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS graphic screen captures.
To view a captured XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS screen, use the Removable Media Manager to find and highlight
the desired .BMP or .JPG file, and then press Enter.
Before capturing an XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS screen, Cscape must first be used to assign a
Screen Capture
Control Register
and
Filename
in the application. To do this, first open the Graphics Editor by selecting
the
View / Edit
Screens
item on the Cscape
Screens
menu. Next, select the
Screen Capture
item of the
Graphics Editor Config menu and then enter a
Control Register
and
Filename
.
To capture an XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS screen, turning On the assigned
Screen Capture Control Register
will
capture the current XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS graphics screen and write it to the microSD card using the
assigned
Screen Capture Filename
. To view a captured XL7/XL7 PRIME OCS screen, use the Removable
Media Manager to find and highlight the desired .BMP or .JPG file, and then press Enter.
