CIRCUIT

Data circuit utility.


Formats

CIRCUIT ADD circuit [keywords] "description
CIRCUIT DEL circuit
CIRCUIT EDIT circuit [keywords] "description
CIRCUIT LIST circuit
CIRCUIT SET circuit action


Parameters

ADD

adds a circuit to the configuration file

DEL

deletes a circuit from the configuration file

EDIT

edits an existing circuit in the configuration file

LIST

lists the specified circuit configuration (default=lists all circuits)

SET

sets circuit processing to active or inactive

circuit

circuit name; four characters maximum (no default)

action

ACTIVE

activates a circuit

 

INACTIVE

deactivates a circuit

"description

80-character circuit description


Keywords

CONFIG=

circuit configuration file name

INGESTOR=

name of the ingestor to use; for example, INGETEXT or INGEBIN

SPOOL=

spool file name; used for the INGEBIN ingestors


Remarks

CIRCUIT is an operational utility that adds, deletes, edits, activates and deactivates circuits. All other configuration information about the circuit is entered in the circuit's configuration file using a text editor.

If you change any parameters in the configuration file, you must inactivate the circuit for associated ingestors, wait for the circuit to stop, and then activate the circuit for the associated ingestors.


Examples

CIRCUIT LIST

This entry lists the circuit configurations for all circuits.

CIRCUIT ADD DDS INGESTOR=INGETEXT CONFIG=DDS.CFG "Domestic Data Service

This entry adds DDS to the list of circuits. Data from the circuit is processed when the circuit is activated. The configuration file name for this circuit is DDS.CFG.

CIRCUIT SET DDS ACTIVE

This entry activates the DDS circuit. The next time the STARTXCD program checks the circuit list, the DDS ingestion is started.

CIRCUIT EDIT DDS CONFIG=DDS01.CFG

This entry changes the name of the DDS circuit configuration file to DDS01.CFG.
