2.4. Editors¶
2.4.1. Control File Viewer/Editor¶
The Control File Viewer/Editor provides functionalities to visualized, edit and validate control files (.ctrl).
A Control file (Fig. 2.12) is used to customize the detection of corrupted pings.

Fig. 2.12 An example of Control file.¶
Each row of a control file must start with:
‘#’ for a single-line comment.
‘+’ for adding pings to the list of the flagged ones.
‘-‘ for removing pings from being analyzied for flagging.
It is possible to identify a single ping (e.g., ‘+ 1234’) or a range of pings (e.g., ‘+ 1234 1240’).
Warning
A control file must have the same name as the input file. For instance, the control file for ‘test.kng’ must be named ‘test.ctrl’.
2.4.2. Fix File Viewer/Editor¶
The Fix File Viewer/Editor provides functionalities to visualized, edit and validate fix files (.sfix).
A fix file (Fig. 2.13) is used to customize the reduction of corrupted pings.

Fig. 2.13 An example of Fix file.¶
Each row of a fix file must start with:
‘#’ for a single-line comment.
‘@’ for flagged pings.
It is possible to identify a single ping (e.g., ‘@ 1234’) or a range of pings (e.g., ‘@ 1234 1240’).
Warning
A fix file must have the same name as the input file. For instance, the fix file for ‘test.kng’ will be named ‘test.sfix’.
