Saving Configuration Settings
You can export the configuration settings from the EA800 to serve as an archive for the system or as a template for
quickly programming other systems. The configuration data is stored in a machine-readable format. To export
configuration to a USB drive perform the following procedure:
Now that the configuration is stored on the USB drive you should copy it onto a PC to provide a backup in the event
that the USB drive is lost or fails. By default, the configuration file is named EAYYMMDD-HHMMSS.cfg where:
■ EA indicates that the configuration file is from the EA800.
■ YYMMDD is the current date.
■ HHMMSS is the current time in 24 hour format.
It is suggested that you rename saved configuration files to identify the specific EA800 system they came from
using up to 15 characters, not including the file extension ‘CFG’. File names longer than 15 characters are not
supported.
