TapeMaster Configuration File

To modify TapeMaster, open TMSSMaster.cfg in a plain text editor such as Notepad.

TMSSMaster.cfg can be found in the TapeTrack/TapeMaster install directory (default C:\Program Files\TapeTrack\TapeTrack TapeMaster).

The config file has comments throughout the code to either disable the execution of unused code blocks or add explanation to the available functions.

Block quotes look like /* */, anything between these characters are treated as comments and not code.

Anything after the characters // are treated as comments and not code for that line.

TapeMaster Configuration File Sections

Variables

TMSSNOLEVELSLOT

Standard display of slot allocation in TapeMaster is either the virtual slot number or shelf and slot number.

In some cases it may be easier to allocate a volume to a drawer or shelf without being concerned which slot it occupies. To remove any confusion for the librarians, it is possible to remove the slot number from the display, showing only the drawer or shelf number.

To remove the slot number from display see Remove slot level display

Defaults

Defaults allow you to set the options presented when creating new customers. Options available are:

Barcodes

You can preprocess barcodes locally before they are sent to the Server for parsing. This allows you to convert a Volume to a fully qualified barcode. As many filter/values can be added as required. The list will be searched in the order they appear in this file
