Comparing projects

• Configuration data (*.cfg)
• Configuration data (*.cdc)
• Text files for comparison (*.cfg.txt)
• Text files for comparison (*.cfg.txt)

The following variables are excluded from the comparison:

If the CAMERA.AUTO-REGULATION rejects the value ON, CAMERA.EXPSURE-US, CAMERA.EXPOSURE and CAMERA.GAIN needs to be ignored. These values exist in every read setup.

Starting up successful read setup:

If SETUP.START-WITH-LAST-READ accepts the value ON, the reader will start a new trigger cycle. In this instance, the SETUP.START-WITH-SETUP value has to be excluded from the comparison.

** match string +++/—**:

There is a possibility to stop the data validation process by using a comparative string with an increasing or decreasing number (for example, Part000, Part001, Part002). If the first return value from ** DVALID.MATCH-STRING-PARAMS gives you the value ON, the value of DVALID.MATCH-STRING then changes. In this instance, the value DVALID.MATCH-STRING** has to be excluded from the comparison.

The following restrictions apply when comparing:

• The contents of DMB files cannot be compared.
• Comparisons of DMB, CDC and CFG files are only possible in binary form.
• The text files contained in the backup of a device can be compared. They cannot be generated from projects.
• Disaster recovery is possible with the CDC and CFG files. A DMB file contains CDC and CFG files.
