11.2 Creating and Modifying the EventCalendar.XML File
You can create and modify the EventCalendar.XML file with the EventCalendarSet SOAP
function. The following section, Event Calendar SOAP Interface, describes how to use the
EventCalendarSet function and the other SOAP functions provided for the Event Calendar
application.
Alternatively, you can create and modify the EventCalendar.XML file manually with an
XML editor, and download it to the i.LON 100 via FTP. Echelon does not recommend this, as
the i.LON 100 will require a reboot to read the configuration of the downloaded file.
Additionally, the i.LON 100 performs error checking on all SOAP messages it receives before
writing to the XML file. It will not perform error checking on any XML files you download via
FTP, and thus the application may not boot properly.
If you plan to create the XML file manually, you should review the rest of this chapter first,
as it describes the elements and properties in the XML file that define each Event Calendar.
For instructions on creating or modifying an XML file manually, see Manually Modifying an
on page 15-1.
11.2.1 Event Calendar SOAP Interface
The SOAP interface for the Event Calendar application includes four functions. Table 55 lists
and describes these functions. For more information on any of these functions, see the
sections following Table 55.
