2. Set the following options:
Import to Subsystem
Select the root subsystem for the XML file. There are two choices:
• As Defined in XML File. Imports the XML file into the
subsystem specified in the XML file.
• Select Subsystem. Imports the XML file into the subsystem
you specify. By default, the top-level root subsystem will be
selected. To change the subsystem, click Browse.
Input File Name
Specifies the name of the XML file to import.
Log File Name
Specifies the name of the output XML log file that is generated
during the XML import. This log lists the objects created, modified,
or deleted, and any errors encountered. The default name is
C:\Users\Public\Documents\LonWorks\OpenLnsCt\XML\
network\Export[ _version ]Log.xml.
If this field is clear, an XML log file is not created.
3. Click OK. The IzoT Commissioning Tool XML Import Status window displaying the report
status opens, and IzoT Commissioning Tool imports the XML file. You can click Cancel to stop
the XML import. When “Import complete” opens, click OK to close the window.
Tips:
• If you are making changes that affect the OpenLNS CT drawing, set the IzoT Commissioning
Tool event log limit high enough to hold all of the events that may be generated by the XML file
import. You can set the maximum number of log entries in the Network Properties:
Synchronization options category (see Appendix A for more information on this option).
Alternatively, in the <L
ON
W
ORKS
Network> section of the XML file, you can insert the limit
between a pair of EventLimit tags, using the following format:
where n is the maximum number of log entries saved per drawing file.
• To reduce the time required to import a L
ON
W
ORKS
network XML file, do the following: remove
entries from the L
ON
W
ORKS
network XML file that do not need to be updated before importing
the network (especially collections of objects); import the XML file with IzoT Commissioning
Tool OffNet; close any remote applications if you are importing a large amount of data.
