number and the configuration just downloaded.
3.3 Configuring ALIEM
ALIEM is provided with a factory configuration. Moreover, some configuration models are available (§Alpha-
Log configuration templates). In both cases it is required to start from one of these configuration models and
to adapt it according to the specific requirements. When completed, this new configuration will be sent to
the instrument, which will start operating based on the options selected.
ALIEM configuration is performed independently from Alpha-Log configuration. Only at the end,
the ALIEM configuration is "imported" into an existing Alpha-Log configuration. The ALIEM
configuration process can only be performed via PC directly connected to ALIEM. While Alpha-Log
is reachable and remotely configurable, an ALIEM module, even if connected to Alpha-Log, cannot
be reached if not disconnected from Alpha-Log and connected to a PC.
Edit the factory configuration model:
1. Select the serial number of the instrument in the Instruments Browser list.
2. Select the saved setting (e. g. “Factory”), choose Configuration->Save as New Configuration…, assign a
name to the setting (e. g. “Custom”) and press [Ok].
3. Open the configuration by selecting Configuration->Edit…
Edit one of the configuration model:
1. Select the serial number of the instrument in the Instruments Browser list.
2. Select Configuration-> New…, choose one of the available model, assign a name to the setting (e. g.
“Custom”) and press [Ok].
