■ ■ ■ ■ ■ "FILE" menu CNF
The menu File contains the commands for creating,
opening and saving of a cnf file with the curves and
parameters; it also contains functions for exporting,
importing and printing of the cnf files. You can also
go to all commands via mouse click or with the key
combination Alt and the underlined letter, for
example [ALT] + [D] + [S], if you want to "FILE" →
"SAVE".
"NEW CNF"
With "FILE" → "NEW", an „empty" new cnf file is
provided. This means that the VLT factory settings
are entered in the parameters here.
"LOAD CNF"
You can open an existing cnf file with "FILE" →
"LOAD CNF": Either the control parameters pre-
viously saved with "PARAMETERS" → "SAVE TO
FILE", if you want to edit new curves; or a cnf file
that already contains one or more curves for the
control parameters which you want to edit.
Select the desired file in the following dialog field by
double-clicking or by clicking on OK. If the selected
cnf file contains more than one curve, another
dialog field follows where you select the curve to be
edited:
Click on → "APPEND NEW", if you do not want to
edit any of these curves, but want to edit another
one.
If the selected cnf file does not contain a curve, an
empty file will be opened.

Programmable SyncPos motion controller
When an old version of a ".cnf" file (one that has
does not have all the newest parameters defined) is
loaded, then the CAM Editor will now use appropria-
te default values for the missing parameters. A dia-
log box is displayed that will inform the user when
this happens. When the ".cnf" file is re-saved by the
CAM Editor, then the file will contain the complete
compliment of parameters.
"SAVE CNF" and "SAVE CNF AS .."
Click on "FILE" → "SAVE CNF" in order to save a
new or modified cnf file from time to time or at the
latest before closing the file.
If you have never saved a new cnf file, the corres-
ponding dialog window "FILE" → "SAVE CNF AS"
will be offered automatically.
Click on "FILE" → "SAVE CNF AS .." in order to save
a new or modified cnf file under a new name. All of
these files are automatically provided with the
extension .cnf.
"EXPORT"
If you want to export the data to another format, for
example in order to print or to further process these
data, click on → "EXPORT". The data will be saved
in the ASCII format with the extension „.dat".
"IMPORT"
You can only import dat files which you have
created with → "EXPORT".
"PRINT" and "PRINT BW"
Depending on the connected printer, you can print
the curve diagram. In black & white or color. If your
printer is unable to convert the color diagram into
black & white, you should use → "PRINT BW" for
black & white.
"EXIT"
You can close the CAM-Editor with → "EXIT" or by
clicking on the exit icon.
