7.7 Licences
The Licences tab lists the Options (see section 9) that are currently enabled for the LGK-3901/DSK-3901.
7.8 Saving a Configuration
Once a configuration is fine-tuned as required it can be saved back to one or more LGK-3901/DSK-3901 cards and
backed up to file as necessary. This is done via the File menu as follows:
• File > Save
o
Asks the user to confirm the IP address of the card and the filename to save the configuration as.
o
Subsequent saves reuse the same IP address and filename
• File > Save As > To Device…
o
Asks the user to confirm the IP address of the card and the filename to save the configuration as.
• File > Save As > To File…
o
Allows the user to make a backup copy of the configuration.
To use a configuration that was saved from the Configurator Tool onto an LGK-3901/DSK-3901 card, select USER
PRESETS > IMPORT > [filename].xml from the front panel menu and then restart the card as instructed. On restart
the imported configuration becomes the “active configuration” and will persist until a different configuration is
imported.
Note: If the same configuration file is imported onto cards with different Capabilities Files then each card will use its
own Capabilities File to validate all configuration settings. Configuration settings that can not be supported will be
ignored. Configuration settings that are not defined but are supported will take the factory default settings.
7.9 Exporting Capabilities File
As described in section 7.1 the validity of any configuration file depends critically on the hardware device capabilities
of the LGK-3901/DSK-3901 and the software options that are currently installed. This is defined via a Capabilities
File, which is always generated by a running card.
In order to work on configurations off-line without being connected to a running LGK-3901/DSK-3901, a local copy of
a Capabilities File is required. The can be generated via the File menu as follows:
• File > Export Capabilities File
