Layout of Control File

The syntax of the file is described below. Please note that everything that is written in the same line in the syntax description must be so. Maximum line width is 132 characters.

TYPE = <proftype_1>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

...

TYPE = <proftype_2>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

<panel_dt> <defcut> <defclip>

...

• <proftype_i> is one of the normal profile types used in AVEVA Marine, for example, 10, 20 and 30.

• <panel_dt> is the data type of the current panel. This data type together with the profile type is the key to find the appropriate default cutout. <panel_dt> may contain the wild card character % in one or several positions. Examples are "410", "%2%", "%%%" and "%12". In this document <panel_dt> will also be referred to as a panel data type mask.

  One panel data type mask can be more specific than another. A panel data mask, A, is less specific than another mask, B, if A contains more wild card characters than B. Example: "12%" is less specific than "121".

  The system does not check for multiple or overlapping panel data type masks. If two masks overlap each other then the first one will be applied. Because of this the most specific data type masks should appear first in the definition file.

• <defcut> is the cutout type to be applied to the current profile type if there is a match of the data type of the current panel.

• <defclip> is the clip arrangement that should be applied. Zero indicates no clips.

  If <defclip> is given with slashes (/), it indicates that the extended clip handling should be used. All three CT's must always be given.

  This shows, as in the example below, that CT1=190, CT2 is undefined and CT3 should be 230.

  Example:
  TYPE = 10
  410	38	011
  41%	42	0
  4%%	1	0
  1%%	511	011
  %%%	202	004
  TYPE = 20
  300	..	..
  TYPE = 43
  325	5	190/0/230
