Customizing.

You must customize the file before you export it.

1. Use a text editor to customize the file.

• Section headings, keywords, and pre-defined values are not case-sensitive, but

string values that you define are case-sensitive.

• Use adjacent quotation marks to indicate no value. For example, LinkURL1=""

indicates that the URL is intentionally undefined.

• Enclose in quotation marks any values that contain leading or trailing spaces or

are already enclosed in quotation marks.

• To export scheduled events, configure the values directly in the .ini file.

• To export a system time with the greatest accuracy, if the receiving Rack PDUs

can access a Network Time Protocol server, configure enabled for NTPEnable:

NTPEnable=enabled

Alternatively, reduce transmission time by exporting the [SystemDate/Time]
section as a separate .ini file.

• To add comments, start each comment line with a semicolon (;).

2. Copy the customized file to another file name in the same folder:

• The file name can have up to 64 characters and must have the .ini suffix.

• Retain the original customized file for future use.

The file that you retain is the

only record of your comments.
