When a satisfactory instrument configuration has been
achieved, either from the initial configuration with the basic
parameter settings, following Autotune or other further
adjustments, these settings can be cloned to other
instruments on the network or saved in a file for later use.
Suites of settings of all the instruments in an application can
similarly be saved to a file making it possible to re-configure
all of the instruments on a machine or process in a matter of
seconds, to optimise them to different task.
