Equipment Templates: Output Node

The output node contains the following attributes:

Output Name

The output node name attribute should be unique across the output nodes in the template. One way to achieve this consistently is to use the format of [FileRef]. [RefID] (as outlined in Equipment Templates: Outputs). The recommended value for [FileRef] is listed with each output database.

Output File

The output node file attribute refers to the filename for the associated database (DBF) file.

Output Filter

The output node filter attribute is used to match the equipment defined in the equipment database (DBF). The filter value needs to match the type name specified in the type filed of the equipment. The recommend value for the filter is the parameter string for the type defined at the beginning of the template file.

Each output node defines the associated Output Common fields and Output Database fields for the record that is to be created.
