Is 'SpecRun adapter' in *.runsettings file support <SettingsFile>?

[Anjana Kulasinghe]

Previously I used a *.testsettings file to define the remote server under Roles. (After compiling the code in the build server i need my tests to be executed in a remote TestControler where i have connected several TestAgents.)

I have successfully shifted to specrun and i'm using a different *.srprofile with TestRetry enabled for TFS builds.

Because of this, now i'm using a .runsettings file instead of .testsettings file.

Since the *.runsettings file do not have a tag to define the 'Remote Controller name' BuildServer is not redirecting the tests to my test controller.

My Question is

Is there a way to include 'Remote Controller name' in *.runsettings file??

If not 

Is 'SpecRun adapter' in *.runsettings file support <SettingsFile>?

I'm a very new to SpecRun and BuildServer configurations.

Any insights highly appreciated...

Thanks in advanced..

Additional Details:

I found this article and defined the settings file. But no luck.

Here's my  *.runsettings file.

The test adapter integration interface used to execute test in the test window and on TFS only supports a .runsettings file. .testsettings files are not supported.
