— App Properties Screen

If you are successful in connecting, there will be no error messages. On the left side
under the navigation pane, expand the Sedona directory to see the App (application)
directory. Click on App and you will see a property sheet. On the lower left side, the
Sedona Palette will be filled in. If there is no Sedona Palette, you can pull it down by
expanding the side bar icon on the task bar.

On the property sheet you can enter a
name for your application under App
Name
. You will also notice a Scan
Period
setting with a default time of 200
which is in milliseconds. The Scan
Period
indicates how often the Sedona
logic is solved which is once every scan
period. During its sleep time, the
BASC20 CPU is allowed to do other
tasks. By increasing the Scan Period,
Sedona logic is solved less frequently
thereby allowing other tasks such as the
web server to perform its work.

On the navigation pane, expand the App directory
and you will notice two folders service and sheet.
Click on sheet to obtain the default Wire Sheet. This
is where components will be assembled into an
application. Under Sedona Palette, select one of the
kits. Now you can see all the components that are
included in that kit. To access the components,
simply drag one of the components onto the wire
sheet. You will be required to provide a unique
seven character ASCII name for the component.
