Generator file system and media
The generator has a file system comprised of a System folder and a Library folder of
resource files that can be stored on multiple media (storage devices or locations). The files
in the file system are briefly described below.
Generator file system
The 882 generator file system is comprised of two main directories (folders): 1) System
and 2) Library. The System folder contains the realtime operating system and firmware file
(vxWorks) and the gateware. The Library folder contains the following resource files:
• Fonts - Object files used to define the font types.
• Formats - XML files defining the format parameter settings.
• FormatLib - XML files for configuring the source list of formats
• Images - C++ object files, executables, bitmaps, and XML files for rendering images.
• ImageLib - XML files for configuring the content list of images
• Sequences - XML files with instructions for test sequences.
• Users - XML files for user configuration profiles
Generator media
The generator provides for two read/write local storage media and one server-based
medium (storage locations):
• Flash memory
• PCM CIA card
• Host server
Each of these storage locations contains or can contain all the generator’s System and
Library files.
