INI Data
Data can be retrieved from text configuration files known as .ini
files. To retrieve data, a window is provided for easy
configuration:
INI data is particularly useful for retrieving information from a
configuration file, for use in other macros such as a SQL data
retrieval macro. For example, a wayfinding scenario requires an
LCD screen to display event scheduling for a specific
conference room. The media player will have an INI file that
indicates the room ID that should be used in retrieving
scheduling information from a SQL database.
The syntax for the INI macro is:
[src:ini;file path;section;key;default value;]
Parameters are separated by semicolon. The macro parameters are described as follows:
src:csv
file path
Section
Key
