Duplicating matrices

In order to keep the same selected settings, such as SIF assignments (safety instrumented
function groups), in another matrix, it is possible to duplicate the matrix template. To do this,
proceed as follows:
1. In the matrix folder of the CPU, select the matrix you wish to use as a template and
export it as a source via the context menu.
2. Select a destination folder and save the file here under a new name. Renaming the file is
important as, if you do not do this, your template file will be overwritten when you carry
out an import.
