Copying unit configuration onto the SD card:
The
[Copy unit configuration file onto SD card]
function is used for documentation or backup pur‐
poses. You can use this file to distribute a recurring unit configuration to different controllers. You
can save the unit configuration set on one controller as a unit configuration file on the SD card.
When it is saved, the directory CONFIG is saved on the SD card and the file CONFIG.BIN is saved
in this directory. This file saves all user-dependent controller setting data. Sensor calibration data is
not copied as this data has to be defined separately for each measuring point. There needs to be an
SD card with free memory space in the controller's reader.
