Ah!  Knew there was an explanation!   ;D
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.

Oh come on Bob, we know you have at least 2 clones in your office closet and problem one at home. No one normal human could do all that you accomplish in one day.   ;)

We actually did try cloning Bob, but there were...issues: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_s1ERA8KRBU.

I'm actually at my daughter and son-in-law's house, enjoying some time with my 10-day-old granddaughter. But fear not...I actually brought a laptop, a board development interface, and a piece of prototype hardware with me.

Gosh, isn't she a little young for all that tech gear, come-on you have to give them a little time to grow up and play with blocks and stuff.

Ya gotta start em young these days, ATU.  If they haven't done their own website by 9 months, they'll never catch the pace.   :D

Even the ability to text into Data Viewer edit fields would be great. Then I could at least paste in an array of values 100 at a time. As it is, I can paste exactly zero text into a string edit field.

Yeah...that's a bug.

FWIW...we might actually be creating a memory import/export facility that may or may not show up in a release that might ship in the next couple of months. ::)

I look forward to that. As it is, I'll describe my scenario:

1024 digital + 512 analog alarm/reads, each with 9 fields.

25-30 block reads, each with about 6 fields.

This boat goes in the water around the beginning of the year, so it will get done. I may hire a monkey to do it.

might be a good idea. I guess I could think about a more intelligent way to do it as well. I'll have a linux box I can set up as a MB server, so I could keep the read map on the network and upload it periodically. This way administrators could modify it from a UI. Keep it in a database and have the MB server act as go-between.

If I'm going to go this far, however, I may as well just have the linux box do all of the read/logging. Ideas.

Hey Bob,

We any closer to a beta on this? I'm finishing up my memory map. Total count is ~1500 items.

Probably sooner. Based on my knowledge of cats, that is the "I'll kill you someday because you offend me, but near-term I will drop a Baby Ruth in your water bowl" look, rather than an imminent death and dismemberment look.
