TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The file structure is as follows:
[category_a]<CR><LF>
labelvar_a1=value 1<CR><LF>
labelvar_a3=value 2<CR><LF>
labelvar_a2=value 3<CR><LF>
[category_b]<CR><LF>
labelvar_b1=value<CR><LF>
labelvar_b2=value<CR><LF>
<CR><LF>
<CR><LF>
<CR><LF>
Note: <CR><LF> = Enter key
Each category is enclosed in square brackets [] and identifies the input category (e.g.[VIDEO],
[AUDIO1A]) for a group of associated label variables. The label variables must follow their associated
category in the file and represent the label names that can be changed in the router. The value that
follows the equals sign is a 16 character maximum length text string that is assigned to the variable.
Alphanumeric characters such as a-z, A-Z, 0-9 and punctuation (ISO Character values 32 to 126) are
valid. Label variables can be in any order as long as they occur in the correct category section of the
file. Physical inputs on the router that do not have an associated label variable will retain their original
value when the label file is uploaded to the router. If a label variable is specified more than once, the
last value in the file will be used.
