Using iTX with the XML Adaptor
Configuration settings
Below, we list the possible configuration settings. For many of these, we recommend you do
not change the default value except where we tell you to do so.
Setting
Description/comments
ChannelDefinitions
(Specify the channels the XML Adaptor sends schedule update messages for.)
Channel
(Details for a single channel, or a pair of master-slave channels.)
name
Channel name.
id
Unique channel identification name or number.
backup
An indication of whether or not the channel is
part of master-slave pair.
Set to "true" if so; or “false", if there is no back-up
channel.
HeartbeatMessageInterval
The interval (in seconds) after which the XML
Adaptor sends a heartbeat message, containing
the status of each channel, if there is no schedule
update message in the meantime.
OutputTcpPort
The number of the TCP port that third-party
systems use to connect to the XML Adaptor.
Usually, this is 10540.
TcpTimeout
How long (in seconds) that the XML Adaptor waits
when there is no response from a third-party
system before closing the connection.
UseViewFiltering
Set to "false". The XML Adaptor does not use this
setting.
WaitForResponse
An indication of whether or not the XML Adaptor
should get a response from a third-party system
for each message sent. If the setting is “true”, the
XML Adaptor does not send another message
until it gets such a response.
Set to "false" if the XML Adaptor does not require
a response from a third-party system.
SendPartialSchedule
Each schedule update message contains the
number of schedule events specified in the
ItemLookAhead setting (see below).
Set to "true".
SendPeriodicUpdates
The XML Adaptor sends schedule update
messages when an event plays out, and heartbeat
messages at the interval specified in the
HeartbeatMessageInterval setting.
Set to "true".
