MS Excel may be used for creating the CSV file i.e. use Excel as editor, when
done store the file as XLS and then as CSV. Do not later open and edit the
CSV file using Excel. If changes are needed edit the XLS file and store a CSV
file again.
2.1.7.2 Timeout
Tag name: timeout
Valid data: 0-60 seconds – 0 specifies no timeout (the default setting will be used if the cell is left
empty)
The settings shall be like this for the CSV file described in section 2 shall fit.
If the CSV data file is ready load it now (it can be loaded or replaced at any time).
In this case a “prototype decoder” which is known to work has been pasted into the editor window.
For this particular decoder, the encircled text needs to be replaced with a tag (the list to the right
displays possible tags however only if a CSV file is loaded).
The template shall be given a name which corresponds what is specified in the CSV file and “type”
of decoder may be specified (optionally).
If needed change the default parameters. These parameters will be used unless otherwise specified
in the CSV file.
This VDR Explorer configuration is generated using the CSV data the decoder template used as
example fin section 2 and 3
