PowerExchange provides an example configuration file, named pwxccl, in the PowerExchange installation directory that is specified in the PWX_HOME environment variable on Linux or UNIX or in the PATH environment variable on Windows. Use this example file as a starting point for creating a customized file. To preserve the example file in its original state, rename it and copy it to another directory. Then customize the copy. You must specify the CS parameter when you start the PowerExchange Logger to identify the custom configuration file path and file name.

When customizing the configuration file, if you enter a parameter value such as a Windows path that contains one or more spaces, enclose the value in double quotation marks ("). Make sure that you use straight quotation marks.
