Saving a Configuration to a File

Once a System 5 has been configured, whether it be from downloading,
IR learning, front panel settings, or a combination of these, the current
configuration can be saved as a file (*.sy5) and loaded again later. Any
number of configuration files may be saved and restored. This eliminates
having to set up the system for each application again and again. Saving
and restoring system configuration files is done from the File menu, as
shown in the example to the left.
