Configuration

The config.xml file allows you to customize the following settings:

• Columns: Defines the number of slot columns available in the dew collector.
• Rows: Defines the number of slot rows available in the dew collector.

Example:

<config>
    <columns>3</columns>
    <rows>2</rows>

The Config/XUi/windows.xml needs to match your config.xml file :

Example

<config>
	<set xpath="//window[@name='windowDewCollector']/rect/grid/@cols">3</set>
	<set xpath="//window[@name='windowDewCollector']/rect/grid/@rows">2</set>
</config>

The Config/blocks.xml can be used to modify the collection rate :

Example

<config>
    <set xpath="/blocks/block[@name='cntDewCollector']/property[@name='MinConvertTime']/@value">1800</set>
    <set xpath="/blocks/block[@name='cntDewCollector']/property[@name='MaxConvertTime']/@value">3600</set>
</config>
