Offline Settings File Conversion
The EnerVista 8 Series Setup software supports conversion of offline settings files created
in the SR Series platform. The feature allows users, who have SR devices, to convert their
existing 469 offline settings files to 8 Series files and write them to their 869
devices.
The EnerVista 8 Series Setup software reduces the manual effort required when moving
from an older product to the 869. The feature takes an existing 369/469 settings file
provided by the user and generates a new settings file compatible with the 8 Series order
code specified by the user. After the import is complete, the results are displayed in an
interactive results window.
Convert SR 469 Files EnerVista 8 Series Setup version 1.2x and above supports conversion of SR 469 files above
version 5.0 only to 869 settings files. For files below version 5.0x, first convert these files to
version 5.0 or higher using the latest EnerVista 469 Setup software before doing the
869
conversion.
The conversion can only be initialized with EnerVista from the Offline/New Settings File
commands located in the taskbar.
1. In the menu taskbar, click on Offline and select the New Settings File item. The
following Create New Settings File dialog box appears, which allows for the setpoint
file conversion.
2. Select the Firmware Version and Order Code option for the new setpoint file.
3. For future reference, enter some useful information in the Description box to facilitate
the identification of the device and purpose for the file.
4. To select the file name and path for the new file, click the button beside the File Name
box.
