14. Event Data (CSV File)
Event data is stored in the computer as csv files, which are editable and allow you to change FA-9600
settings. The appendix explains syntax and rules of csv files and how to edit the files.
See “Appendix 1: Event Data List” for details on event contents.
14-1. Syntax and Rules
The file is line-based and each line represents each setting.
Each line requires a newline character (CRLF).
The following format is applied to each line.
“Category”,“Target”,“Item”,“Value”
|
* Do NOT enter any trailing or leading spaces on commas or "CRLF."
* Only alphanumeric characters and symbols (7-bit ASCII characters) are available.
* Strings are case sensitive.
* Enter only strings and symbols listed in the Event Data List. (See “Appendix 1: Event Data
List.”)
* CSV files must be encoded as 7-bit ASCII files.
14-2. Event Data Editing Example (Value Change)
For example, to change FS1 Video Level (see Sec. 5-1. “VIDEO PROCESS AMPLIFIER”) to
123.4%, there are two procedures as shown below.
◆ If using a new file:
(1) Create a csv file using a text editor.
(2) Type the text as shown below in the csv file. (See “Appendix 1: Event Data List” for details)
Process Amp,FS1,Pre Video Level,1234(newline character)
(3) Save the csv file as 7-bit ASCII. If using the Windows Notepad, select “ANSI” for the
Encoding menu to save the file.
(4) Import the csv file to FA-9600 using the Web GUI to apply the change.
See Sec. 13-3-2. "Event Data" for how to import events to the FA-9600.
◆ If using an existing event file:
(1) Export an event file from the FA-9600 to the Web GUI. Open the file using a text editor.
(See Sec. 13-3-2. "Event Data" for how to export events to the Web GUI.)
(2) Change the Value in the Process Amp,FS1,Pre Video Level,…“ line to 1234.
(3)(4) (Same as above)
