Block Transfer Module Templates
Block transfer module templates have been created and installed by the add-on
profile for these modules.
Supported Modules
Not all modules are listed. If your module is not in the list, you can use the
Generic BT_MODULE profile in the software, or create your own template
specific to your exact module or configuration. This appendix covers the
basics for creating your own module template.
The properties of block transfer modules are defined in files in the
subdirectory ’Templates’ of the directory where the 1756-RIO software is
installed. Template files have the extension BtModTpl. The BtModTpl files
can be opened with Microsoft Notepad.
Template files are simple text files that define the properties of the block
transfer module.

TIP
The best way to create a template is to use an existing
template as an example. Use one that is similar to what you
want to create, copy it to a new file, and modify it. The
following are examples of template records.
