Example of a pattern file for Pally

Notice that the name of the pattern in the EUR_pall.json-file is My EUR pallet pattern. When the Pally program is set up, and the program is played; then the Pally pattern selector will show the names of each pattern, as such:

Notice that the name of the pattern in the EUR_pall.json file is shown to the operator

Once this pattern is selected, and the Start Program button is pressed, then the global variable ProductName is set to be equal to the corresponding file name of the selected pattern. Such that, in this case, the ProductName = EUR_pall.

Notice that the file ending, .json, is not included in the ProductName
