Hi Everyone
I have few question for you regarding the Relation and the DVEs, at the moment I have this situation:
I have a X20 with few cards demodulator, and each card have between 4 or 32 demodulator.
Now I want to create a DVE for each demodulator, I have correclty create the function, I can also create correctly the DVE and link it to the X20 element, but I can't create a link between a DVE and a demodulator listed in the table of the X20.
In the driver I create the FK relation
<Relation name="S2X Demodulator-Resource" path="8900;7000"/>
<ColumnOption idx="27" pid="7028" type="retrieved" options=";foreignKey=8900"/>
But when I try to insert the referance of the DVE, the column of the DVE will not update. it this a problem change I do to the driver?
Hi Marco,
It should also be possible to directly use table "S2X Input Demodulators" (PID 7000) as entry point in the function file. (Refer to Docs)
<Function id="f65cb9e6-5b46-44ab-8192-ea5d205f2922" name="AppearTV X20 Demodulating" maxInstances="65535" profile="..." parent="...">
<Parameters>
...
</Parameters>
<EntryPoints>
<EntryPoint pid="7000" type="undefined" />
</EntryPoints>
...
</Function>
The reason being that the Demodulators table is already populated and you can create a resource per table row directly by means of an entry point.
Then there is no need to use Table 8900 (Custom) to create resources up front and link them through a foreign Key to table 7000.
@Robin. It’s basically to be future proof. Later we’ll dynamically create demodulators when we need them. So it’s for late resource binding.
Hi Robin
Thanks for your replay, but I need to use the table 8900 as entry point because in the same function file I have another function, and both have to use this table
