Chapter 10 WANDL — Third-Party Interface
Translating Between NMT and WANDL Formats
Converting WANDL Files into NMT .cnf Files
This procedure is for the conversion of WANDL files into files that can be read by the NMT. This
procedure processes files specified in the WANDL specification file.
Step 1 Return to the parent directory.
cd ..
Step 2 Convert the WANDL files into an NMT .cnf format by entering
tpi2nmt
WANDL_directory
[-BPXT3 card][-NA][-NIM][-od output_directory]
[-if cnf][-of cnf][-D][-H]
• WANDL_directory— The name of the directory containing the WANDL data files (as well as the
extension used by the WANDL data files, typically the network name). This name is assigned to the
output .cnf file and .loc file. The .loc file has system coordinates. For more information on .loc files,
see the section “-H—Display help.” later in this chapter.
• NOUXM - New links will not use the uxm card
• -NIM—The program should not display informational messages, only warnings, errors, and those
messages that may require user action.
• -id output_directory—Specify a directory different from the default as the destination of the .cnf
file.
• -if cnf—Specify a specific WANDL file extension name for input.
• -of cnf—Specify a specific name for the .cnf output.
• -ol loc—Specify a specific name for the .loc output file.
• -over—Overwrites output files.
• -distd—Use the link distance as the WANDL Distance (default in cost).
• -distm—Use the link distance as the WANDL Distance (default in monthly cost).
• -disti—Use the link distance as the WANDL Distance (default in install cost).
• -D—Display steps and debugging information.
• -H—Display help.
