Save configuration to disk Enter desired name of configuration (ASCII lower table) and press Save button to the right of
line to save. Configuration will be saved inside the MCDI>ExpreciumD-D4 folder.
Restore saved configuration
Specify name of the file you want to use and press Restore to upload to Configurator. File
must be in the MCDI>ExpreciumD-D4 folder.
Back up memory
Specify name of the file to save log file with content of the events memory to disk. File will be located in the
MCDI>ExpreciumD-D4 folder. This file cannot be re-uploaded to Ed or D4.
Activate buzzer
This parameter is selected by default. It is only available in the Configurator. It is not available in the Buzzer
sound when events are received, during configuration transmission between Ed/D4 and PC. De-select to disabled onboard
buzzer. NOTE: disabling buzzer will also disable buzzer notification of events receiving.
Clear Buffer
Pressing on Clear buffer will erase all events in the memory buffer. NOTE: unless you want to empty buffer on
purpose, there is not benefit to clearing this memory as it is a circular pile or 4095 events. When full, newest event always writes
over the oldest event in memory.
Reboot
Pressing on reboot will restart unit without clearing the events memory. NOTE: this may take up to 30 seconds and
receiving will not be available during this period. Changes made in the Configurator do not require Reboot.
Status bar and refresh
Configurator displays an emulation of status bar from D4 front display. Refresh is needed to actualize
status. Communication status may update if another connection is made to pc using a port different from the one used by
configurator.
Time and date
Display time and date retrieved from Ed/D4. Sync will send time of PC to Ed/D4. There is no automatic daylight
savings setting. Must be set manually. As a general practice, MCDI recommends checking time and date sync between PC and
receiver at beginning of each shift.
RECEIVER TAB
Most receiving options are available from the Receiver tab. Most parameters are set per phone line.
