About Code and Configuration Files
Background
iBox operation requires two different files:
Code File: This file defines the applications that can be supported by the iBox.
Configuration File: This file, which is generated using SGConfig, is used to
enable and configure the applications’ operating characteristics.
Important
The Code File and the Configuration File must be consistent.
Specifically, the configuration file created using SGConfig must be based on the
same applications (and versions of these applications) from which the code file was
created.
Any differences between the applications in the code and the configuration files may
result in:
Erratic or unpredictable behavior of the iBox
Failure of the iBox software
Configuration
and Code File
Mismatch
Code and configuration file mismatch can occur for one of the following reasons.
The wrong configuration file is downloaded to the unit. This can happen through
a local SGConfig download; for example, the downloaded file could have been
based on an iBox with a different code file.
The code file that is downloaded does not match the configuration file that is
resident in the iBox memory.
The code file or the configuration file has become corrupted, either before or
during download.
Preventing
File Mismatch
Configuration and code file mismatch can be prevented and corrected, as follows.
Since mismatch is usually a result of operator error, you can prevent it by
exercising care.
Erasing a configuration file that is resident in NVRAM before downloading a
new code file can prevent mismatch.
Mismatch may require the regeneration and re-downloading of one or both files.
