Programming and Operating Concepts
Performing Configuration and Calibration Storage
Configuration and calibration storage is performed through a Program mode MAIN MENU prompt
LOAD/STORE CONFIG. Here, a file containing the instrument's programming and configuration is
created by executing a routine called STORE CONFIG TO DISK. Similarly, creation of an instrument
calibration file is performed via a STORE CALIB TO DISK menu choice. Configuration and calibration
files will be distinguished by eight-character names that you will specify. The applicable file extensions for
both file types are shown in Table 3-13.

Storage Type
Configuration
Note that an instrument configuration file may also be created and stored to disk using optionally purchased
SCF Configuration Software. You do not need a live instrument to create a configuration file using SCF.
Once stored to disk, the instrument configuration file may be downloaded into other instruments that have
an identical model number. This helps to greatly reduce the amount of time required to program and
configure multiple units sharing the same application. Having the instrument configuration on disk can also
drastically minimize down time in the event of an instrument failure. The file can be used to program and
configure a replacement unit within seconds. As far as the calibration file of the instrument is concerned, it
can be used to restore analog input and output calibration if use of a calibration source and/or meter is not
possible or an inconvenience.
Performing Set Point Program Storage
Refer to Section 5 of the manual for a detailed explanation of how Set Point Program Storage is
accomplished.
