EZConfig Editor on the Workstation (PC)
Overview
EZConfig Editor creates, edits, and manages EXM files for Dolphin terminals. There are two versions of the EZConfig Editor:
one for the Dolphin terminal and one for the workstation. In the workstation editor, EXM files are edited, saved, and then trans-
ferred to the Dolphin terminal. In the terminal editor, EXM files are edited and saved right on the terminal.
This chapter details the workstation (PC) version of the EZConfig Editor. For information about using the terminal version of the
EZConfig Editor, see EZConfig Editor on the Dolphin Terminal beginning on page 3-1.
EXM File Structure
The EXM file format supports a multi-level, hierarchical, tree structure. The terminal reads the highest level section first and
then reads the key values in each child section. The key values configure the terminal. EXM files replace INI files for Power
Tools and terminal configuration settings. If both an INI file and an EXM file are present for the same application, the termi-
nal defaults to the EXM file and a warning message is displayed at startup.
There are two types of configuration files in the EXM file format:
• Configuration Documents program and configure the terminal. See Configuration Documents on page 4-10.
• Registry Documents update and modify the registry. See Registry Documents on page 4-11.
