Saving Configuration Data
Introduction
The Advantys configuration software allows you to save configuration data created
or modified with this software to the NIM’s Flash memory and/or to the removable
memory card (see page 47). Subsequently, this data can be read from Flash
memory and used to configure your physical island.
NOTE: If your configuration data is too large, you will receive a message when you
attempt to save it.
How to Save a Configuration
The following procedure describes the steps you use to save a configuration data
file to Flash memory directly and to a removable memory card. For more detailed
procedural information, use the configuration software’s online help feature:
Step Action Comment
1 Connect the device running the
Advantys Configuration Software to the
CFG port (see page 32) on the NIM.
For NIM modules that support Ethernet
communications, you can connect the
device directly to the Ethernet port.
2 Launch the configuration software.
3 Download the configuration data that
you want to save from the configuration
software to the NIM.
A successful download saves the
configuration data to the NIM's flash
memory.
4 Install the card (see page 48) in the host
NIM, then use the Store to SIM card
command.
Saving the configuration data to the
removable memory card is optional.
This operation overwrites old data on
the SIM card.
