2.4
Creating a parameter file from a copy
Proceed as follows to create a new parameter file from an existing file when in off-
line mode:
1.
Open a parameter file.
2.
Save it under a different file name before making any changes, as any
changes made in the off-line modus are immediately saved to file as soon as
you click the
OK
button.
Î
You can now change parameters at will, without modifying the original file.
The changes will only be written to the new file.
When working on-line, while all changes are transferred immediately to the SIMATRIX, the parameter
file remains unaffected.
3.
If you want to save the new parameters afterwards, you must use the
Save
button to write your changes to file.
2.5
Loading parameters from a data carrier
The
Load
button allows you to load parameter files from the CD delivered with the
unit (*.dat) or any other kind of parameter files held on a different data carrier.
If you are working on-line at the time, the parameter settings from the parameter
file you have loaded will be transferred immediately to the SIMATRIX.
When working in off-line mode, the parameter settings can be loaded, processed
and saved to file under the same or a different file name using the computer.
2.6 Printer
The
Printer Setup
button allows configuration of the Windows standard printer.
