I've also made changes to the Pane Format of the CVPRoducts_AD4.xml
file and would like to submit them to you as Rev 2 but I'm having
trouble with a couple functions; I can't get the vslider or hslider
functions to work. In reference to the following line, can you see
what I'm doing wrong?
<display item="Output_A_On_Time" format="vslider" label="On Time
(1/10th Sec) "/>
There's a typo in the definition file for the decoder XML that wasn't
present in the definition for the programmer files. So this option
wasn't valid in a decoder file. I've attached an updated
decoder-config.dtd which should replace the file of the same name in
the xml\DTD folder. You'll get this by direct reply, and I'll cc:
Jon Miller, but the list will remove the attachment. If anybody else
wants a copy just let me know.
Also, I had to change the item in that example to "On time for output
1" to make it work. Perhaps you've renamed some of the variables in
the file, which would explain that. It's traditionally OK to use
spaces in XML values, as they're meant to be human-friendly values.
Also, as the decoder supports only Direct and Ops Mode Programming,
I've made adjustments in the code that allow use of only those two
modes. Even though Paged and Register Mode are set to "no", I've
noticed that they are still selectable on the bottom of the
programming screen. Why is that? The code has been edited to read;
<programming direct="byteOnly" paged="no" register="no"
ops="yes"></programming>
I assume it to be correct but don't understand why the options are
still available?
Have you remade the decoder index? It might be that information is
taken from the index, not directly from the file. But I'm not sure.
