Device Field Names

When you create a new model,CA 2E automatically sets up a table with values appropriate for the HLL specified by the YHLLGEN model value. When you implement a CA 2E device function in DDS and an HLL,CA 2E uses the implementation names for the device file formats and fields specified by the table. The Edit Device Generation Details panel provides this table. The allocation characters in the table should be valid for your target HLL. You can change these values.

To display the table:

  1. From the Display Services Menu, select the option Display model values (YDSPMDLVAL).
  2. From the Display Model Values panel, select the Display Name allocation values option.
  3. Press F22. The Edit Device Generation Details panel displays. Modify the GEN name as necessary.
