Configuring the Ultra5000 Drive Chapter 4
Understanding the
Programs Branch
The Programs branch contains executable program (.exe) files the Ultra5000
drive can run. It can be found in the Workspace window's On-Line Drives branch
or an Ultraware file. If the Programs branch is in:
•
the On-Line Drives branch, the Programs branch serves as a platform from
which you can run a selected child executable program (.exe) file by issuing
the Run, Stop and Kill commands.
•
an Ultraware file, the Programs branch is merely a container for its child
executable program (.exe) files.
You can copy the Programs branch and paste it into another Ultra5000 drive.
Because a drive can contain only one Programs branch, pasting a Programs
branch into a drive overwrites and replaces the recipient drive's pre-existing
Programs branch.
Understanding the Archives
Branch
The Ultra5000 drive's Archives branch is a container that can hold these types of
files:
•
A Project file, including its child header files and source files
•
An individual header file
•
An individual source file
The Archives branch lets you attach project, source and header files to a drive so
they follow the drive and are available to troubleshoot or recompile your
program.
The Archives branch has no parameters or statuses. Except for Paste, no other
commands are associated with this item.
IMPORTANT
An executable program (.exe) file is created for a Project in an Ultraware
file in the Workspace window using the Build command, it must be
moved to the Programs branch of an On-Line drive before it can be
executed.
TIP
You cannot copy an executable program file to an Archives
branch.
