VCFG.EXE - Configurator

Top  Previous  Next

The Configurator generates the target execution image by linking multiple .VPX files based on the specifications of a .CFG file. While the configuration file (.CFG) is typically generated automatically by the RTCU M2M Studio, it is a plain text file that can also be created or edited manually. It defines the active jobs and physical I/O mappings as established in the Job configuration dialog. The Configurator outputs a .VSX file and an optional .VMP file.

 
If I/O extensions are used in the project, VCFGIO.EXE must be used to add information about the extensions to the .VSX file..

 

For X32 projects, the .VSX file is the image file that is to be transferred to the RTCU device.

For NX32 and NX32L projects, the .VSX file must be added to a container using the RPCTOOL.EXE.

 

The following configurator options are supported:

-x

:

-nx


Build for the NX32 architecture. (default)

-nxl


Build for the NX32L architecture.

-e[0,1,2,3,4]
