5.7.10 Load Configuration (CFG) File

It is possible to load a previously saved configuration file or a configuration file that has been generated at a
remote PC, to automatically setup the unit. There may be more than one named configuration file on the disk
enabling the user to quickly customize set up for various applications.
To load an existing configuration:
From the Record Setup menu, use the UP (↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ) or DOWN (↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ) button to highlight Load CFG File and press the
ENTER button. A pop up window will display "load config=NO*". Press the YES button to change the display
to read "load config=YES?" and then press the ENTER button. The unit will look on the disk/card for any
configuration files which will be displayed in the File Directory. If more than one file exists on the disk, the
directory will list them one above the other, with the current file to be loaded indicated by the arrows alongside
it as shown below. If no configuration file is found the unit will indicate "No Files Found".
Configurations:
→ OLDFILE
NEWFILE
If more than one configuration file exists, use the UP (↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ↑ ) or DOWN (↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ ) button to select the desired file and press
the ENTER button. If there are more files on the disk/card than what will show on the screen, the list will scroll
down with the arrows. The unit will load the selected configuration file from the disk/card and the Disk Status
Window will show "LOAD CFG". If the load is successful, a window will pop up indicating "Configuration Loaded".
Press the OK? button. At this point the unit will automatically reset and begin with the newly loaded parameters.
Note: Once the configuration load has been initiated, the unit will automatically load and restart. Be sure
you select the correct configuration file. It is advisable to save your current configuration before loading
a new one. Use a new disk/card or different filename to save the old configuration.
The passcodes and calibration constants are NOT loaded from the configuration file to maintain
access and calibration integrity.

5.7.11 Filename

The user can enter a filename to uniquely identify the recordings being made. The filename can be any valid
DOS filename up to a maximum of 8 characters, e.g. BATCH1 or SAMPLE5. This filename is applied to all
pen files, the alarm file and the configuration file. Thus if the name "BATCH1" is entered, the file for pen 1 will be
saved as BATCH1.DT1, the file for pen 2 will be saved as BATCH1.DT2 and so on. The alarm file will be saved
as BATCH1.ALM and the configuration file will be saved as BATCH1.CFG. A disk/card can hold several files
with different names. For example, you may run three batches and name the files for each batch (e.g.
BATCH1, BATCH2 and BATCH3) all on the same disc.
