b To begin using a configuration immediately, select 'Save as Current Configuration'.
Note.
When saving the current configuration to internal storage, it is saved twice, once with the filename 'SM500F.cfg' and again with the filename '<time><date><instrument tag>.cfg'
When saving the current configuration to external storage, it is saved with the filename '<time><date><>instrument tag>.cfg'. It is also saved automatically to internal storage with the filename 'SM500F.cfg'.
When 'Save Configuration' is selected, the configuration file is saved with the filename '<time><date><>instrument tag>.cfg' to either selected location, internal or external.
Changes are saved to non-volatile memory only when one of the save options above has been selected. Any powerdown before this results in lost configuration changes.
Selecting 'Cancel' discards unsaved changes and returns the recorder to the Operating level.
New internal data files for enabled recording channels are created if:
– A recording channel source parameter is changed
– The primary and/or secondary sample rates and/or their sources for either process group are changed.
– The input filter type parameter for any channel is changed
– the engineering range parameter for any channel is changed
– A channel tag parameter is changed
– The number of process groups is changed
– A previously disabled channel is enabled
A warning is displayed if a configuration change will result in the creation of new data files. Select 'Yes' to accept the changes or 'No' to reject them.
Selecting 'Save as Current Configuration' suspends recording for a short time while the new configuration is implemented.
c Select 'Save configuration' to save any changes but to continue to use the previous configuration. d Save the configuration in internal or external storage.
e Select 'Cancel' to discard all changes and return to the Operating level.
Note.
A configuration file is saved with the filename '<time><date><>instrument tag>.cfg'
When a current configuration is saved to external storage, it is also saved automatically to internal storage.
