File used by the RTE manager to describe the hardware configuration used.

It must be in the alias folder HW_DIR or USER_DIR, otherwise alarm 988 is generated at switch on. RTE will look for the file in HW_DIR and, if not present, will switch to look for it in USER_DIR.

WARNING: This file is automatically generated based on the information entered in the Project Configurator -> Hardware (see Hardware Settings for more details).

The file is automatically placed in the "files in flash" table. Obviously it will need to be transferred to the CF of the connected motion controller so that it will be assumed at the next switch on.

NOTE: To enable this feature, the auto-generation option of the RHW.CFG file must be selected. From the project configurator, press on the properties icon (the first on the top left) -> Configuration -> Hardware.

NOTE: The AUTOCONFIG shell command is also available, which commands the control to create the RHW.CFG file automatically. The generated file will be placed in the HW_DIR folder.

NOTE: From RDE 3.51.0 it is possible to set the IW and OW addresses of the RP-1 expansion modules (limited to the first 256 words).

use_io_def

This file can also be self-generated by RTE in /f@/ (or in /fa/ in case /f@/ results to be full) following the AUTOCONFIG shell command.
