Appendix A: Setting Delimited Text Format Preferences
You can set the delimited text format preferences when copying text from the configuration utility to the Windows
Clipboard. To set these preferences, select Tools-->Settings from the main menu, then select the Clipboard tab.
Clipboard Settings Window Description
•The Text Delimiter is the character used to separate the list columns.
•The Line Break is a format used to terminate each row in the list. The standard line-break format is Carriage-
Return + Line Feed (CR\LF). Some operating systems use a reversed line-break format (LF\CR), in this case
select the Reverse option. All Microsoft operating systems use the CR/LF sequence and not the reversed one.
•The Text Qualifier is the character used to encapsulate each column item. If a text qualifier is needed, it must
be a character that is not used in the text of the list.
The following example shows some copied zones using the above settings:
"Type","Signal","Switches","Description"
"PGM [03]","Evacuation","02, 04, 06, 08, 09",""
"QIF2K [01-01]","Alert","01, 04, 06, 08, 09","Fire on Floor 2"
"QIF2K [01-01]","Message","05","Fire on Floor 2"
"QIF2K [01-02]","Alert","01, 04, 07, 08, 09","Fire on Floor 1"
The first line is the columns’ header. The text delimiter is a comma, the text qualifier is a quotation mark, and the
line-break is CR\LF (not visible in the example).
