Configuration File Overview:

The default driver configuration file (CONFIG.CSV) for any driver combination ordered is loaded into the
FieldServer and can be retrieved using the Remote User Interface Utility (see the FieldServer Utilities Manual for
more details). Use this file as a template when editing configuration files to ensure that the edited file takes the
correct form. A detailed explanation of the configuration file follows:

Relevant Project information.

This title appears on the top line of the RUI screen. It
may be used to indicate the configuration version
loaded, and the relevant customer/project.

Data Arrays are “protocol neutral” data buffers for storage of data to be passed
between protocols. It is necessary to declare the data format of each of the Data
Arrays to facilitate correct storage of the relevant data. More information is
available in Appendix B.3

Lines beginning // are comments and do
not affect the configuration.

Note: Comments should be at the start of
lines. If comments made after a line of
parameters must not follow a comma
directly.

This section allows for the determination of parameters
not directly related to any of the connections.
