ChangingtheDeviceFile
The device definition file in the ZCOM system is an editable ASCII file.
Every device is defined by one line in the file. Lines beginning with an
asterisk (*) or a semicolon (;) are treated as comments. Any text after an
exclamation mark (!) on a line is also treated as a comment. Spaces or
commas may be used as parameter separators. The definition format is
as follows:
