3.7 CONFIGURING DRIVE FROM EXISTING FILE
It is often desirable to configure a drive exactly like another one. This is often
the case when reproducing a machine design or changing out a drive on an
existing machine. The configuration of the drive is saved as described in
section above. S200 OC TOOLS User Interface Software is used to configure
the connected drive. The file must first be loaded into S200 OC TOOLS by
using the file menus ‘File / Open’. Locate and select the desired configuration
file. It will be loaded into S200 OC TOOLS ‘folder- side’ as though there was a
second drive talking to the software. The tree structure will show the file as
‘Offline’ and normally as Node1. The full filename, with path, will be under
Node 1. Select this filename with a single click of the left mouse button. The file
can be sent to the connected drive by a right-click of the mouse button and
selecting ‘Download offline Configuration to an Online drive. Save the
configuration to Non Volatile memory.
