4.4.2 Load an IAG template (for programming an IAG tag)
(You should read and be familiar with the previous section in the manual.) All users must verify the
current template displayed when programming a tag or a batch of tags. (The template is also known as the tag
configuration data file.) If the current template data is incorrect then the user must load the correct template. If
the correct template does not exist in the list of template files (see below) then the Supervisor must create it.
Select the main menu item "User" then Click on the "Load Template" sub-menu item.
The following dialog box appears (example).
Choose the appropriate template file by selecting it with the mouse
then clicking on the "Open" button.
Verify that this is the correct template; select the Factory/Agency folder
tab and then examine all of the selection boxes displayed.
continued…
Template files are created and stored in a
separate directory as specified by a
Supervisor (default is c:\TagTemplates\*.*).
If the required template does not exist then
only a Supervisor may create a new template.
Possible error message may be "Unable to
load template file" if the directory was emptied
or if the files have been moved.
After verifying that the fixed
Agency fields are correct you
must then verify that the field
having 31 bits of custom Agency
Data is set to the desired value.
Click on Agency Custom folder
tab to view the current value set
for this field (see below).
The selection boxes shown here
allow the template data to be
modified by a Supervisor. The
presence of a Template File name
(at bottom left) indicates that the
data displayed came from that
template file.
