ONFIGURATION FILES
The configuration files’ structure has a binary format to protect con-
figuration file from any type of external intervention from the user.
The file has a tree type structure to keep information of the whole
cluster in the root of the tree and each unit’s configuration in the
nodes. Further changes of any parameter will be saved in the con-
figuration file in its corresponding place.
“Dealer” and “Workshop” versions of AWare are used to create,
modify, save on disk, and load into the units the “Dealer Configura-
tion” and “Factory Configuration” files. The “Dealer Configuration”
and “Factory Configuration” tools are developed for this purpose (see
sections 6-2, and 6-3).

SER SETTINGS PROFILE
User Setting Profile defines the settings of the wireless cluster/link
and the units in that cluster/link. At the same time, an operator is
able to open only one profile in AWare and work with units in that
cluster. The User Setting profile contains two groups of information:
• Cluster/Link Properties – common for all units in the same
wireless cluster
• Unit Specific Properties – setting unique for each unit in the
wireless cluster
The group of Cluster/Link Properties includes:
• Frequency
• Link Data Rate
• Topology
• Scrambling Seed
The group of unit specific properties includes:
• Data Port Rate
