The file format is: text (ASCII).

"SAVE PARAMETERS".
2. Enter data to identify the machine (see Fig. 56).
– You may enter up to a maximum of 55 alphanumeric characters per
field.
– To complete an entry hit <ENTER>.
3. Set the emulation program to the receive mode (download).
4. Enter a file name for the parameters to be saved.
5. Press button S1 on the DDS 2.1. This starts data transfer.
6. Complete the data transfer after the last "$" character
(see the user manual for the emulation program).
7. Hit any key to return to the user interface.
To edit the parameter file, use only a clear text editor, e.g. DOS
Editor, Norton Editor. These editors do not add control charac-
ters.
The saved file can be changed as follows using the editor:
– Make any changes you like before the ":" control character.
– For the parameter values, you may change the figures
after the ":".
– The "$" character is an end-of-file character and must neither
be removed nor changed.
An example of a parameter file printout is shown in the Appendix, Section
11.5.
For axes with identical parameters it is possible to load a previously
saved parameter file into the drive.
Procedure:
1. In the "PARAMETERS" menu call up the submenu "LOAD PARAM-
ETERS".
2. Switch the emulation program to transmit mode (upload).
3. Select a parameter file.
4. Start transmission.
5. When transmission is completed the program will display a message
telling you to hit any key to continue.
