Mapping Files

There are two types of mapping files: internal and external mapping files.

Internal mapping files are prepared by the system administrator. They tell the interface where on the computer network the external mapping files may be found. The format of the internal mapping files is described in Internal Mapping Files.

External mapping files are files which determine how the interface handles the data for going to or coming from AVEVA Bocad Steel; for example, the Profile, Unicode and Material mapping files. The format of the external mapping files is described in External Mapping Files.
