Appendix A: Working with Templates
This section describes how to manage templates when using the WinPDM.
When creating a template in the WinPDM, the templates must be identical to avoid that the
template’s parameters override each other when synchronising the VoWiFi Handset with
WinPDM.
A template can simply be copied between WinPDM.
A.1 Create a Template
1 Open the WinPDM.
2 Select the “Templates“ tab and open the menu “Template > New...“. The New Template
window is opened.
3 Select the corresponding device type and parameter version that matches the software
version installed on the VoWiFi Handset. Give the template a descriptive name.
The parameters that are not part of the template will be left unchanged on the VoWiFi Handset.
The parameter version of an installed VoWiFi Handset is visible under the Numbers tab or the
Devices tab.
4 Click “OK“.
5 Select the checkbox of each parameter that you want to be part of this template and enter
the proper value.
6 Click “OK“ to save the template.
A.2 Export a Template
1 Open the WinPDM.
2 Select the “Templates“ tab.
3 Select the template to be exported.
4 Select “Template“ > “Export“. Alternatively, right-click the template and select
“Export...“. The Export templates window is opened.
5 Give the template (*.tpl) a descriptive name and click “Save“.

A.3 Import a Parameter File
The parameter version file (*.def) the template is based on, must have been imported to the
WinPDM to be able to import the template later on. If the parameter file is not imported, do as
follows:
1 Open the WinPDM.
2 Select “File“ > “File management“.
3 Select the “Parameter definition“ tab.
4 Click “Add“. The Import files window is opened.
5 Locate the parameter file (*.def), or the package file (*.pkg) where the parameter file is
inlcuded. Ask supplier.
6 Click “Open“ to import the file.
