Delay Compensation will impact DSP resources, so check your QMap
Information report to make sure you are still within DSP resource limits.
Saving and Opening .qms Files
The file extension for QuickMAP
files is .qms. Saving your QuickBUILD
design as a QuickMAP
is a standard Windows procedure, but you may see
some prompts that have been described in the previous chapters. If you don’t
understand these prompts, please review these chapters.
We recommend that you save your file early and often. This software is still
under Beta testing and an occasional “crash” may occur. To save your design for
the first time, click “Save As” in the “File” menu. You will then be prompted to
name your design. Since the VUE-IT
is a 16-bit application, it can be run on
Windows 3.1 or 3.11. These operating systems only support 8 character file
names. If you think that your file may at some point be running on one of these
systems, you may want to limit your file name for easier clarification. If you know
that it will only be running on Windows 95 or higher, you may use a longer file
name.
QuickBUILD
files default to being stored in the “C:\Programs\Maptool”
directory. To open these files in your VUE-IT
software, they will need to be
moved to the correct sub-directory in VUE-IT
. Unless you have installed VUE-
IT
in a different directory, the sub-directory will be “C:\Programs\Vue-it\Isp-
100\Qmaps”. You can save your files directly to this directory if you wish. To do
this you must define this path in the “Save” or “Save As” dialog window.
To open files directly from VUE-IT
, you must define the path mentioned in the
previous paragraph in the "Look in” window in the “Open File” dialog box.
Otherwise files will default to be opened from the QuickBUILD
Maptool
directory.
