- Tip: the Replace command will import tag codes much faster than the Import command. Use the Import command only when appending a relatively small number of tag codes (less than 25k) to a tag action.
- Tip: the Delete All and Replace commands will generate a lot of empty space in the P3 database. We recommend running the Compact and Repair utility after running any of these commands to optimize the database.

Default

Path
This setting defines the default path for exported tag data
information. If no path is defined, P3 will automatically create an
Export sub-directory in the application path, by default.
Default
Repeating
Comments
If this setting is set to 'Yes', default repeating comments
will be
applied each time the application is started or the active profile is
changed.
To modify this setting, press the cell button
when the field is
selected and the following window will appear:
If the first check box labeled 'Use the comments below...' is
enabled, the specified comments will be defined as default values
whenever this profile is activated. These defaults are applied to
data entry by checking the Enable Repeating Comments
option, or
through the Set Repeating Comments
function.
Starting
Detail
Field
This setting will define which tag detail field
will gain initial focus
when a new record is displayed. By default, this setting is 'Last
Used Field', which means the input field is 'sticky' and focus
remains in the same field as the previous record.
Configuring Devices
Device Profile Settings
Device profile settings determine which peripheral devices
should have their
connections opened for data input when a tag session
is opened. The device
manager (displayed below) allows the user to add, delete and modify device property
