You can also think of the commands as hierarchical: A frame (F) contains sections (S) and
sections contain cards (C).
The following is a small and simple example:
F 8144
S IN
C 1 0
C 2 0
C 3 3
C 4 1
END
S OUT
C 1 0
C 2 0
C 3 3
C 4 1
END
This example describes 4 input cards (in slots 1–4) and 4 output cards (in slots 1–4) in an
NV8144. In the example, the cards in the first two input slots are standard cards. The third input
slot has a disembedder card and the fourth input slot contains a MADI card.
Similarly, the cards in the first two output slots are standard cards. The third input slot has an
embedder card and the fourth output slot contains a MADI card.
Actual configuration files, of course, would be larger than this example, but just as simple.
 If an NV8576-Plus has two frames, its configuration file(s) have 4 sections in order:
; Frame 1
F 8577
S IN
cards
END
S OUT
cards
END
;Frame 2
F 8577
S IN
cards
END
S OUT
cards
END
You must specify the cards in ascending order of the slots.
 Important: the slot ordering follows the slot labeling on the rear of the router, although
some older routers might have different labels. See
Slot Numbers on page 51.
 Note that if DHP does not recognize the content of a line in the file, the line is treated as a
comment. You are free to intersperse comments throughout the configuration file.
Comments typically start with a semicolon (;) or an asterisk (*).
