Positioning Application: Can user actions / remote command files with .act / .ucd file extensions be used instead of .cmd file types, and vice versa?
Environment/Versions
PosApp (SimGEN) v2.80 or earlier
compared with
PosApp (SimGEN / SimREPLAYplus / SimREPLAY) v2-81 or later
Answer
The simple answer is "Yes".
The file content format has not changed
File extensions were changed from SimGEN v2-81 to improve scenario sharing via email
The "
.cmd
" extension causes firewall filters to strip such files
.act
replaced
.cmd
for User Actions files
From SimGEN v2.81 file selection automatically recognises both types
Before SimGEN v2.81 simply change "
.act
" to "
.cmd
" before selecting it in the scenario
.ucd
replaced
.cmd
for remote data files (menu [Options-->Remote Command Settings]).
SimGEN uses a normal Windows 'browse' control to select files
Change the file type filter to select files with an extension that do not match the automatic default
NOTES:
Using an .act file with an old software version 'might' involve incompatible commands
Even though file format has not changed new software versions will introduce new features
Earlier software versions will not recognise new commands
Do not confuse
.ucd
files that are selected via menu [Options-->Remote Command Settings] with 'User Commands" files in the scenaro tree
