11.5 File Tab

The File Tab has three sections. Any of the options on this tab can also be accessed from the File submenu.

The Template Section provides for opening and saving templates. The Save and Save As buttons provide the
standard Windows functionality for dealing with files. The Load button is used to open existing templates.

There are two additional menu items available only from the File menu: Create new file and Templates.

The

Create new file

, option allows for creating custom templates using the existing template in memory as the

starting point. Assign a new name for this template. The template will be saved under this new name.

The

Template

option will bring up a list of predefined templates that can be loaded into the program. These

predefined templates are useful as a starting point when defining custom templates.

A typical scenario using the setup program would be the following:

• Open up a predefined template from the supplied list

• Choose ‘Save As’ to save this to a new file name

• Proceed to customize the template by making any changes that are needed

• Save the template to disk (if you want to reuse this template)

• Download the template to an attached unit.

The Communications with Model 121 Section allows the user to upload a template file from the unit, download
the program’s current template to the unit or Compare the program’s current template with the unit.

The Print (report) Section allows the user to:
1. Configure the current Windows

printer through the Select Printer option.

2. Print a Maintenance Report through the PC's printer using the Print Maintenance option.
3. Print the current template through the PC's printer using Print Setup option.
