Description

This is a simple utility intended for the manufacturers to test devices before releasing to the public to ensure that each device is free of defects.

How to Use

Before this little test utility can be use you need to create a small script which consist of keywords/commands in this format:

KEYWORD text text text etc..

Once you have created or edited the config file (.ini) you can then execute the utility with the following syntax:

USDMT.exe -f config.ini


where: -f config.ini loads the configuration file.

Keywords and parts of the config file

First token is the keyword then a space separator followed by some text literals that is interpreted by the utility.

A template with all the keywords is also include in the SVN, which you can edit.

a '#' in the beginning of a line means its a comment and simply ignored

example:

# Logic Shrimp Config file

Blank lines are also ignore

Keywords are case-sensitive.

KEYWORDS are all caps

Example:

#Logic Shrimp Config file

#Blank lines are ignored, '#' at first char in a line means remark. like this
