6.2.11.3.0 General Profile Syntax Requirements

Review the following profile syntax requirements before you create a profile:

You must separate profile entries with a space or a tab (when using a text editor).

Profiles should be saved with a “.blk” extension so the default file filter in MPE recognizes them.

Blank lines between rows may be inserted to improve readability.

The profile must start with the header data definition, then with channel and command data definitions for
each succeeding channel defined in the profile. (Header data, Channel 1 data, Channel 1 command data,
Channel 2 data, Channel 2 command data, and so forth.)

Keywords are not case-sensitive.

Do not leave a space between the keyword and the equals sign (=). However, you can insert a space after
the equals sign to improve readability.

Use header keywords (FileType, Date, and so on) only once.

Use channel keywords (level, frequency, and so on) only once for each channel definition.

6.2.11.4.0 Header Data Syntax

The following is an example of proper header data syntax:
