Batch Mode
GALEP can be completely controlled from the command line, allowing to implement GALEP commands in
your own production software. For this, a powerful set of batch commands is available. A GALEP command
line has the following format:
galep5 [filename.gpf2] [filename.log] [/Action] [/Option]...
The command line is not case sensitive, e.g. /VerboseLevel2 is identical to /verboselevel2.
GPF2 and LOG files
.gpf2 (Galep-Project-File2) file contains a 'snapshot' of data, device and device configuration. The file can
be saved by selecting the GPF2 file type inside the Save As file dialog box. When giving a a GPF2 file name
as command line option, GALEP is set up to the saved stated.
.log file name in the command line causes the program messages to be written into this file. The /console
command line option (see below) forces the program to also open a console window for displaying program
messages.
Please note:
No relativ paths are allowed for .log and .gpf2 files. The location for files without path is the application
directory.
The .gpf2 file format must match the Galep software version. When updating to a new software version, eithe
create the .gpf2 files anew, or keep the installation of the old GALEP software version together with you
batch job and .gpf2 files in an extra folder.
ctions
The following Actions are available in a command line:
/prog - Program action
/read - Read action
/blank - Blank action
/verify - Verify action
/erase - Erase action
Options
The following Options are available:
/console - The program messages will appear in a console window. Use this option to test your batch file.
/showwindow - The main windows will be shown on the screen. Use this option to test your batch file.
/noexit - The program will not terminate after the batch run. This option works only togethe
with /showwindow.
There are up to three possible windows in a batch run: the command line window, the console window and
the data window. To terminate the batch run, close the data window, NOT the console window!
/verboselevel1 - Without this option, the program issues only the batch messages (see below).
Verboselevel1 issues all messages usually shown inside the action tab window.
/verboselevel2 - This level will issue all program messages.
