Bernese GPS Software Version 5.0 - Bernese GNSS Software

18. The Menu System
18.7 Change Options, Update Panels
The two functions described in the following two section are integral part of the menu
system and can, therefore, not be executed outside of the menu.
18.7.1 Change General Options
Program CHNGEN (”Menu>Configure>Change general options”) allows to change the values for a
specific keyword occurring in all panels in a specified list of directories. This may be useful
if you have to change, e.g., the nutation model filename to a new name. You may specify
• one or more program input files in ${U}/PAN,
• all panels in the directory ${U}/PAN resp. all panels in one or several BPE option
directories (wildcards are allowed, e.g., ${U}/OPT/*, ${U}/OPT/PPP GEN, or
${U}/OPT/PPP *), or
• all panels in directories listed in an input file (see Section 22.4.16 for a file format
description).
The last two options take into account not only the files with the extension INP, but also
the input files extended by the Job ID INP * (see Section 3.3).
The names of general files such as the file of constants, the satellite information file, the
file containing the geodetic datum definitions, etc., may be changed to new names in a
straightforward way (see panel “CHNGEN 2: Changes General Input Files” ). The values for any
keyword may be changed using the options in panel “CHNGEN 3: Change Any Keywords”. Use
this second option with care. In general, keywords need not to be unique across input panels
of different programs, and with this option, it would be easily possible to unintentionally
change keywords with the same name in different program panels. See the online help for
more information.
18.7.2 Update Input Files
Program UPDPAN (”Menu>Configure>Update input files”) can be used to update program input files
in the users panel directory ${U}/PAN or in one or more BPE option directories ${U}/OPT/*
(wildcards are allowed). You may also specify a file containing a list of directories with
panels to be updated (see Section 22.4.16 for a file format description). Input files with
the default extension (INP) and extensions including a Job ID (INP *, see Section 3.3) are
updated.
The program is useful when panels for the Bernese programs are changed and new input
fields are added (e.g., with a new release of the software or due to changes by the user). In
this case new panels will be created that retain the user settings for existing input fields
with new fields added from a master set of panels. All fields that cannot be edited by
the user are taken from the master panel in any case (apart from the main menu input
file ${U}/PAN/MENU.INP). When using the program be sure to use UPDATE for option “Update/copy”
in order not to overwrite your files. See the online help for more information.
