4.10.1 Settings for event guide information

Event guide information is set in an event guide information file managed by JP1/IM - Manager.

In this file, you can enter settings about the contents to be displayed as event guide information, conditions about the target JP1 events, and other definitions.

The contents displayed as event guide information are called event guide messages. Messages can be stored and managed in individual files known as event-guide message files. The relationship between the two types of files is shown below.

Figure 4‒86: Relationship between the event guide information file and event-guide message files

The update timing after you edit an event guide message differs for the event guide information file and event-guide message files, as follows:

• Event guide information file

  To apply the changes (edited message or condition definition) in the event guide information file, you must execute the jco_spmd_reload command or restart JP1/IM - Manager.

  After the changes have been applied, the Guide area, if not currently displayed, appears in the Event Details window the next time a user logs in to JP1/IM - View.

• Event-guide message file

  After you edit an event-guide message file, the changes appear when you simply refresh the Event Details window.

We recommend that you use an event-guide message file if you periodically edit messages.
