This portion of the Control Center screen allows selection of software dis-
tribution files that are located on the deployment PC. After selection, these
files can be downloaded to the system hardware in preparation for activa-
tion at an appropriate time.

Configuration Files

See Configuration Files

on page 262

for more information on the location and

structure of configuration files.

Configuration Box

This portion of the screen shows the name of the configuration set that is
currently active (running on the hardware). The configuration set is created
and edited using the configuration editor (as described in the previous
section of this manual). The preferred set is selected in the “File” drop-
down field. The

Update Only

button is used to download the selected set to

the hardware. If the Update Only mode is used, the configuration set will
be downloaded but not executed. If the Update and Apply mode is used,
the configuration will be downloaded and activated on Maestro system.

CAUTION If the Update and Apply button is chosen, all signals passing through the

Maestro system will be a briefly interrupted while the configuration is acti-
vated on the Maestro processors.

You must reboot Maestro when you see a message that says the FTP failed
after pressing either the

Update

button or the

Update and Apply

button to

upload a new configuration.
