26 Introduction
Introduction
The Import/Export function enables you to make a backup (or export) copy of your DACS’s configuration
parameters. By exporting the configurations, the saved files can quickly be loaded, or imported, into a replace-
ment DACS—greatly speeding up the installation process should a DACS need replacing.
Note All actions for Import/Export require superuser access privileges.
To import or export a configuration, click on
Import/Export under the Configuration Menu to display the
Import/Export main window (see figure 6).

Export Configuration
Note The exported configuration file is a text-format file. Do not try, how-
ever to edit the operating characteristics contained in the file.
Note The parameters that will be exported are the power-up settings as
they are stored in flash memory and may not be the current operating
parameters. To ensure that you export the most current parameters,
go to
HOME, then click on the Record Current Configuration button
under
Immediate Actions.
