Config Update - Sperry Marine Visionmaster FT ECDIS User Manual

ECDIS User Guide

Config Update

The Config Update feature enables the operator to export a copy of their
system configuration to an external USB memory stick. When exported, the
configuration is saved as a compressed file which can then be forwarded
as an email attachment to your system supplier, or to Northrop Grumman
Sperry Marine (NGSM) service control.
A modified configuration file can be imported to your system through the
Config Update feature.
The import or export of a system configuration file should only be
implemented when requested to do so by your system supplier,
or by NGSM service control. Also, a configuration from another
VisionMaster system must NEVER be imported to your system.
Exporting a Configuration
To export a configuration, do the following:
1. Connect a USB memory stick to a USB
port at the front of the VisionMaster PC.
The device name appears in the Import
Configuration File field.
2. Select the device name and click the
Export button. A compressed file of the
system configuration is exported to the
device, and when complete a temporary
prompt appears confirming that the file
has been exported.
3. Click the Eject button and remove the
memory stick from the VisionMaster PC.
The configuration file is saved as `config.cfz'
which can be forward to the relevant authority.
Note that the compressed file is a standard zip
file but the file extension is non-standard in order
to bypass common email filters.
