A user may download a previously saved configuration to the ControlWave EFM. Users
would select the file to download to the unit by clicking on the Browse button to locate it. A
user would then click on Load from File. This will update the recipe with the information
from the file. To load the configuration to the ControlWave EFM, the user would click on
Write to RTU. By defaults the RCP files are stored in the following folder:
(C:\OpenBSI\WebEFM\Config).
The RCP file can be edited with a text editor such as WordPad. Users may save a
configuration from one meter, use a text editor to change the configuration parameters for a
different meter and read the configuration from the file, and download the modified
configuration to a new meter.
