Verifying Your CONFIG.DAT Configuration
Use the CHECKCFG utility to verif y that you properly configured your
set-up file. CHECKCFG reads your configuration and reports any syntax
errors. To get the utility, contact your Systems Engineer.
To verify your configuration, type
checkcfg <input config file> cfglit.dat config.dat
S <input config file> is the name of your parameter set-up file.
S CFGLIT.DAT contains the strings that appear in the configuration me-
nus, parameter files, and system messages.
S CONFIG.DAT is the name of the output file you will download to the
terminal. You must name this file CONFIG.DAT.
You are ready to download the CONFIG.DAT file to the terminal when
CHECKCFG reports no errors. For download instructions, see
“Downloading Files” on page 251.
If CHECKCFG reports an error, use a text editor to open and correct the
set-up file. This chart lists the system messages CHECKCFG may display.

CONFIG.DAT Parameters and Qualifiers
Note: If par ameters are duplicated, an error is not generated. Instead, the
terminal processes the entire file and uses the last entered value of the du-
plicated parameter.
Parameters in the set-up f ile apply to all model numbers unless otherwise
noted here. The following pages list each parameter and its qualifiers.
Some qualifiers have default values. If you want to use the default value,
you can omit the qualifier from the parameter set-up file. Default qualifi-
ers are listed between square brackets “[ ]” in this chapter.
The CFGLIT.DAT file specifies the text of set-up menus or system messa-
ges. Parameters and qualifier strings in the set-up file assume you are using
the default CFGLIT.DAT file. To customize CFGLIT.DAT, see “Chang-
ing Text” on page 232.
