•

The device descriptions are optional and free-form. You can change the descriptions to any-
thing suitable for your configuration.
The columns for the levels in the level set contain port numbers. You can edit any port number
in the device list. (In most cases, the ports in the list were generated in the ‘Add Multiple Devices’
process. See

At the bottom of the page are 5 buttons:

•

Click ‘Export’ to save the device list to a comma-separated (.csv) text file.
A ‘Save’ dialog appears in which you can navigate to a folder in which to save the file.
NV9000-SE Utilities sugggests a name for the file, but you can change it. For example,
NV9000-SE Utilities suggests
ExportDevPhysConn
You might want to choose a name more meaningful to your situation. The file actually saved
is
‹yourname›_Input.csv
.
(NV9000-SE Utilities does not immediately show that the file type must be .csv. So remember
that the save is to a .csv file.)
