Cygnus Editor Operating Manual

3.5 Editing the Input and Output Names and

Output Types

Figure 3-12

shows the Input/Output Names page of the Cygnus Editor. This

page allows assigning of names to the system Inputs and Outputs. The assigned
names are used on the Cygnus Thin Film Controller display and therefore must be
entered in all capital letters. Alphanumeric characters, as well as the following list
of characters,

_ underscore

! exclamation point

# pound sign

~ tilde

- dash

% percentage sign

& ampersand

are the only characters allowed within a name. A name may contain up to 10
characters and can not contain spaces.

Names can be assigned using two techniques - user entry or system assignment -
with the priority given to the system assignment. When programming the
Hardware Parameters for each channel (see

section 3.7, Editing Hardware

Parameters, on page 3-22

), the assignment of some hardware components, to

use an input or output, will reserve that input or output name with a name dictated
by the system. This system assigned name will overwrite a user entered name if a
conflict is determined. An example of a system assigned name is shown in

Figure

3-11

, which shows that the Crystal Shutter for Channel 1 has been assigned to

Output number 2. This output name (XTL_SHTR_1) has been assigned by the
system and cannot be changed from this page by the user.
