6.4.10.1 Status during MONITOR or CONTROL
After switching from OFF LINE to MONITOR/CONTROL, CMT1000 reads the parameters
from the device‘s RAM. Now, all parameter changes carried out using CMT1000 are
written directly into the device‘s RAM.
- Write Parameters to EEPROM:
The parameters in the RAM are stored in the device (only
possible during CONTROL Access).
- Save Parameter File:
The parameters are saved to the hard disk as an INI file.
- Open Parameter File:
The INI file is loaded into CMT1000 and the RAM is
overwritten again (only possible during CONTROL Access).
When opening a parameter file from disk, the old parameter file is immediately overwritten
in the RAM (only possible during CONTROL Access).
6.4.10.2 Status during OFF-LINE
No parameter changes carried out in CMT1000 are transferred into the device.
- Write Parameters to EEPROM:
No effect, since there is no communication between
CMT1000 and the device.
- Save Parameter File:
The parameters are saved to the hard disk as an INI file.
- Open Parameter File:
The INI file is only loaded into CMT1000.
If you now switch to MONITOR or CONTROL the CMT1000 reads data from the RAM
again.
