Understanding Slot Numbers

The database contains approximately 100 slots into which Database Dynamo blocks can be added. These slots are numbered from 50 to 149. Slots 1 to 49 are reserved for GE database blocks.

The Database Dynamo Configuration Utility generates a default slot for the Database Dynamo that you are adding to the database. Use this slot. If you must change the Database Dynamo slot, select the Dynamo in the configured column and enter a new value for the slot in the Slot field.

NOTE: Once a slot is selected, it should never be changed. If you must change the slot, export the database to an ASCII file first. Change the slot of the block. Delete the database and import the ASCII file into a new database.
