3. In the Configuration Manager, right-click a layer and choose Paste.
The instruments are added to this layer. If the name is already in use, it is
extended by an increasing number.
If you have selected a configuration in which the measure file is not avail-
able, the signals in the newly added instruments are indicated as "No-
Match" signals. To avoid a "No-Match" situation, an automatic signal map-
ping is performed in case the "Copy" source and the "Paste" target contain
both exactly one measure file. To resolve a "No-Match" situation, see "To
replace a signal" on page101.
