EMS EventBX / List-Import-Export

 

 

The EMS EventBX / List-Import-Export screen provides for the listing of existing definitions, searching, import, and export.

 

A list of current definitions displaying the Owner.SubSystem.Event Nbr is obtained by pushing Request List. Clicking an item in the list jumps to the Define screen and displays the record.

 

 

 

The search function scans all existing records for the text specified. Enter the Search text then press Search EventBX. Clicking on the an entry in the Located... column jumps to the record.

 

To copy EventBX data from one MOMI environment to another, under Export..., select Export for MOMI Use (MOMI -> MOMI). Connect to another MOMI environment and then select Import. Options are provided to completely replace any existing definitions, just overwrite existing definitions (which leaves existing non-matching data alone) or don't replace any existing definitions. Note that the exact same MOMI PC Client version must be used for both export and import.

 

Export or Import of non-formatted records uses an ASCII text file comprising one line per record with the following format:

Owner <ETB> SubSystem <ETB> Event Nbr <ETB> Text <CRLF>

 

Where -

Owner is the overall creator of the record (i.e. Tandem, BWS, etc...)

SubSystem is the group of software generating the record (i.e. Pathway, Storage, etc...)

Event Nbr is the numeric value of the message

Text is the line-by-line of information

any embedded CRLF within Text is converted to an ETX with a value of 3

 

ETB is the ASCII control character with the value 23

CRLF are the ASCII control characters carriage return line feed with the values of 13 + 10
