Function requiresSmmSetupWizard

  • Whether a configuration file has to be loaded through the SMM Setup Wizard rather than through the ordinary drive parameter path.

    Two things decide it. A configuration only needs the wizard if it carries safety parameters at all, and the wizard only applies to a device that keeps its safety configuration on a detachable module — where those parameters live in a separate parameter space, which is what the wizard and its verification and validation steps exist for.

    A device with no such module keeps its safety parameters in its own object dictionary and writes them into the same config.csv as everything else, so for it they are drive parameters. That is a Circulo NG: sending the operator to the wizard would send that configuration somewhere it does not belong, and leave the drive with no way to be configured from a file at all.

    deviceSupportsSafetyModule comes from supportsSafetyModule, which reads the device's own dictionary. Pass true when it is not known: refusing a load that would have been allowed is recoverable, and loading safety parameters down a path that cannot verify them is not.

    Parameters

    • parameterIndexes: readonly number[]
    • deviceSupportsSafetyModule: boolean

    Returns boolean
