How to use the SCP Device Mapping Tool

Follow the steps below:

1. Click Start, point to All Programs, then SIMSCI, then SCP.

   

2. Click SCP Device Mapping Tool. The Device Map tool launches, displaying all active CPs.

   

3. Select a CP, and then click Read. A tabular grid appears, displaying details for the referenced devices of the selected CP.

   Note: If there are no devices for the selected CP, or if the map file contains nonexistent devices and no device exists in the selected CP, then a dialog box error appears.

   

4. Enter a new existing Device Name for each old device. If you wish to deactivate an old device, leave its Device Name blank.

   

5. Select the Load Devices into CP after Save option.

6. Click Save. The file will be saved under "C:\Users\<user name>\Documents\SimSci\SCP\<CPName>" in the .smp format.

   Each time the mapping tool runs, it will load the previously saved settings. Clicking Save will overwrite the previous map file.
