The Auto Unload Scripting Control will appear given you three options:

Edit the unload script

Reload the script

Clear the unload log.



Edit the Unload Script

[Edit]


The Auto Unload Script is contained in a file named Unload.scp that is located in the root iLink directory. If
the script file is not present, iLink will create one on entering the Unload Control window above.

Each line in the script represents a device to unload. The format for each device is:

<hh>:<mm>,<Device Type>,<Profile>


These are defined as follows:

<hh>:<mm>
This is the time of day (in 24 hour format) at which to unload the device. If the device is to be
unloaded at multiple times during the day, then a separate entry is required for each unload.

<Device Type>
This is the device which is to be unloaded. Possible values are

{DS-4483, DS-CPU3}

.


<Profile>
This is the profile to be used for connecting to the device. The profile defines the connection and
communication settings for the device in question.


It is possible to have numerous devices listed for Automatic Unload, each with its own connection profile.
The number of unload entries in the script is limited only by the physical limitations of the communications
system used. It is also possible to have the same device listed many times, for different unloads during
the day. Unloads that coincide are queued and executed sequentially.

Reload the Unload Script

[Reload]

This button will re-load the script into the Scripting Control. It is important to do this after editing the script.
