[foxboro] Fw: GDEV ignore limits listing

[Sorry to follow-up my own post.]
I see it now, IGNLM1 and IGNLM2 parameters of the GDEV. (Never used
those.)
So, if you just have a few blocks in this state, just search your ICCPRT
output for "IGNLM1 = 1" and "IGNLM2 = 1" and note which blocks have these
settings.
If you have a bunch of blocks in this state, it gets more tedious. The
problem is that the block name is not printed on every line, so a simple
filter on a paramter name is useless. This is the point when you need to
do a little more text manipulation as described in my first post.

Ken -
I'm not sure what you mean by the limits are being "ignored".
Regardless, you've stepped in one of the largest holes in the I/A system.
There is no tool supplied by Foxboro (either standard or as an add-on) that
does what you need.
The good news is that you can get at the information you want with the help
of some third-party utilities or a little work on your own. OMGET is not
the right tool for this task; you'll want to start by using ICCPRT to
generate a flat text file listing of the configuration of your CP. Once
you have that, you'll need to do some text manipulation to extract the
information you want. You have a couple of options at this point:
1. Roll-your-own. If you're strong with text manipulation tools (grep and
awk), Microsoft Excel, or databases, any of these can be used to get at the
data you need.
2. Stand on the shoulders of giants. Visit
http://www.thecassandraproject.org/ and/or http://www.feedforward.com/ to
find pre-made solutions to these types of problems that have been
generously shared with the user community by members of this list.
Good luck!
