Opening An .Xcl Configuration File - AMX Enova DGX 8 Instruction Manual

Opening an .xcl Configuration File

If technical support has provided an .xcl file or if someone else has previously created an .xcl file for the
system, follow the directions below to open it in XNConnect and then modify the file as desired. After
modifications are complete, the new configuration information must be loaded onto the system to
implement the changes (see page 184).
Important: Even if XNConnect is already on your PC, install the newest version from
www.amx.com. We strongly recommend uninstalling the old version of XNConnect before installing
the new version.
Caution: Use XNConnect only if you need to load or reload the .xcl configuration file or modify your
system's configuration from the original specification. Make a copy of the original file every time the
file is modified.
To open an .xcl file:
1.
Launch XNConnect.
2. From the Getting Started dialog box, click Open Configuration File.
(If the dialog box does not appear, from the File menu select Open.)
3.
Use the standard Open dialog box to locate and open the .xcl configuration file.
4.
From the File menu, select Save As and save an .xcl file with a new name to the PC.
(We strongly recommend making a duplicate copy every time the file is modified.)
The .xcl file is ready to be modified. Whenever changes are made, the new file must be loaded onto the
system to implement the changes (see page 184).
