Import Notes

The procedure for importing racks and tasks from AutoMax Executive V1 or V2 is

described in detail in section 5.3.9. This appendix describes some anomalies that

may occur in the import procedure. See Appendix Q for information about

importing racks and task from earlier V3 Executives.
For some modules, registers defined in AutoMax V2 cannot be configured in the

current Executive software. Before you import a system or rack, first check (and

edit, if necessary) your AutoMax V2 configuration task. Otherwise, an error

message may be displayed (invalid/incompatible data type) when you try to

configure the module. See the examples that follow.

Registers 2 and 3 each define the same variables. Register 2 is read only ,"R,"

and contains only R" bits. Register 3 is read/write, R/W," and it contains both

R/W" and R" bits. The current version of the Executive software allows data to

be read only from an R" register. Therefore, all of the above variables can be

read from register 2 only. Data can be written to register 3 only.
Before executing the Import procedure, examine your AutoMax V2 configuration

task to see how you are using registers 2 and 3. Make any necessary changes to

ensure that you are reading from register 2 only and writing to register 3.
