21.10 File for setting the parameters of Mechatrolink servos.
To communicate with the servos, the DDSSetup uses the parameter description defined in
the file SigmaII.dsc (in the folder C:\...\Fagor\Drive). The DDSSetup only shows the groups
and parameters defined in this file. Here is a description of the file format so a user can
change it to adapt it to his devices. The properties of the parameters described in the file
must be coherent with the properties of the same parameters at the device.
Structure of the parameters describing file (descriptor).
The header goes at the beginning of the file, defined between the labels [INFO] and [\INFO].
The file must have a header and the header must not be changed.
After the header come the parameter groups, each one defined between the labels [GROUP]
and [\GROUP]. The parameters are defined inside each group, each parameter must be
between the labels [P] and [\P]. The format of the groups is:
[GROUP=<text>]
[P<valor>]
Size=<text>
Type=<text>
Default=<value>
Range=[<value>,<value>]
Name=<text>
Units=<text>
Application=<text>
[\P<valor>]

[\GROUP]
Here is an example of the description of a parameter group.
The meanings of the labels are:
[GROUP=Position Related Parameters]
[P200]
Type=Hex
Default=0100
Range=[0000,1239]
Name=Position Control References Selection Switches
Application=Offline
[\P200]
[P804]
Size=4 byte
Type=Signed
Default=819191808
Range=[-1073741823,1073741823]
Units=reference unit
Name=Forward Software Limit
[\P804]
[\GROUP]
Label. Description.
[GROUP] First label of the group description and text associated with the group that will
be shown by the DDSSetup.
[\GROUP] Last label of the group description.
[P] The first label of the description of the parameter and parameter identifier
(between 000 and FFF).
[\P] The last label of the description of the parameter and parameter identifier. The
parameter identifier must be the same as that of the first label.
