Formatting the Control File

The formatting of elements is not important to the daemon; however, SMA Technologies recommends the files be laid out for easiest readability. Carriage returns, line feeds, and non-significant spaces are optional and are ignored. Use a pound symbol (#) to "comment out" a line.

Note

Spaces in the data portion of an element are important and are considered part of the data for SMA FAD to interpret.

Example

The following example shows identical, valid sets of elements in a different layout:

<id1><elt1>a</elt1><elt2>b</elt2></id1>

- or -

<id1>
<elt1>a</elt1>
<elt2>b</elt2>
</id1>
