How to Edit the Cable List
Introduction
Cable lists are XML files which are stored in the internal memory and can be
imported and exported (see page 19). By default, one cable list with a selection of
prevalent cable types is pre-installed on the unit.
XML Structure of a Cable List File
The following example shows the XML structure of a cable list:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<cablelist name="Default" version="1">
<tabledef>
<column attrName="TYPE">TYPE</column>
<column attrName="MILS">MILS</column>
<column attrName="KV">KV</column>
<column attrName="GAUGE">GAUGE</column>
</tabledef>
<cable>
<attr name="TYPE">EPR</attr>
<attr name="MILS">220</attr>
<attr name="KV">15</attr>
<attr name="GAUGE">4/0</attr>
<velocity>
<value>286</value>
<unit>feet/µs</unit>
</velocity>
</cable>
...
</cablelist>
While the bolded parts must not be changed, there can be an arbitrary
number of <cable> elements placed one after another each presenting a cable
type.
