Appendix A: Working with Templates
This section describes how to manage templates when using both the WinPDM and the
Device Manager in the IMS2.
When creating a template in the WinPDM and in the Device Manager, the templates must be
identical to avoid that the template’s parameters override each other when synchronising
the handset with WinPDM or Device Manager.
A template can simply be copied between WinPDM and Device Manager.
The following workflow describes how to create a template in the Device Manager and then
copy it to the WinPDM. However, it is also possible to create a template in WinPDM and copy
it to the Device Manager.
A.1 Create a Template
1 Open the Device Manager in the IMS2.
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 handset. Give the template a descriptive name.
The parameters that are not part of the template will be left unchanged on the handset. The
parameter version of an installed handset is visible under the Numbers tab or the Devices
tab.
4Click "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 Device Manager in the IMS2.
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".
See also A.3 Import a Parameter File.
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:
1Open the WinPDM.
2 Select "File" > "File management".
3 Select the "Parameter definition" tab.
4 Click "Add". The Import files window is opened.
