About
Displays version and copyright information for the Configuration Cloning Utility.
Open
Opens a configuration file. The CCU looks for configuration files in the \System\DDF folder. CCU can open
the following files types:
• ddf files - These files contain the factory default values for the software. These files are placed on the Thor
VM3 when the applicable software was installed or upgraded. Use this option if you wish to start a
configuration settings file based on the factory defaults.
• ccf files - These files contain the modified values for the software settings. These files are created with the
CCU . ccf files are encrypted for security. Once a ccf file is created on one Thor VM3 it can be copied to
other Thor VM3s to duplicate the configuration. An existing ccf file can be opened, modified, applied to the
Thor VM3, saved, saved with a different name, etc.
Close
Closes the open data file.
Save
Saves the open data file as a ccf file.
• If a ccf file was opened, it is saved with the same name and in the same location.
• If a ddf file was opened, a prompt is displayed for the name to assign to the new ccf file. By default a new
file is saved at \System\DDF though a different location can be specified.
Save As
Saves the open data file as a ccf. If a ccf file was opened, this option allows a new name or location for the
data file to be specified during the save process.
Exit
Exits the CCU. A prompt may be displayed if there are unsaved ccf changes.
Edit
Provides access to the standard Windows Cut, Copy and Paste functions. These functions can be used to manip-
ulate the settings within the configuration file.
