Using XML datagrams

XML datagrams are used to describe parameters and data. These datagrams offer more flexibility than binary datagrams with a fixed structure, and they are not as compressed as binary datagrams are.

XML datagrams are not used for the actual sample data.

The XML datagrams are simply an XML text file following the standard XML convention. Tag attributes are used to contain the information. The length of the XML file can, as with all types of datagrams, be determined from the length of the datagram given in the datagram encapsulation.

The name of the first tag defines the contents of the XML datagram type.

Note

The Configuration XML datagram replaces the EK60 Configuration datagram (Datagram type CON0).

The Environment XML datagram replaces the environment information part of the EK60 Sample datagram (Datagram type RAW0).

The Parameter XML datagram replaces the parameter information part of the EK60 Sample datagram (Datagram type RAW0).
