BFIELDMAPHEADER

Table Czar(s):

Erik Beall

Description:

contains a description of the data contained in the corresponding mysql table for BfieldMapData. Unused by BField as yet.

Usage in the offline software:

Code for accessing these tables exists in BField package, but the code for using these within BField (rather than text files) has not been committed, and may never be. The need is not great.

Validation for entering new data:

A python script reads in the text file and makes mysql insert statements to put the generation information of the bfld_*.dat file into the database. Currently on the obsolete 120 fardet and the likewise obsolete 142 neardet maps are in the database.

Process for automated filling:

Table not updated automatically or info not available.

Additional information:

info contained is just like the first two lines of each bfld_*.dat file.

Structure:

Field Type Description
SEQNO int(11)
ROW_COUNTER int(11)  
GEN_COIL_CURRENT_AMP_TURNS float
XPOS_INIT float
X_DELTA float
X_NUMBER int(11)
