7.7 Saving the parameter set
Overview
The device is configured for the application using SOPASair. The parameter set can
be permanently saved in SOPASair. To be able to restore the parameter set to a
replacement device, for example in the event of a device failure, you should also save
the parameter set externally.
Approach
1. Permanently saving the parameters in SOPASair:
✓
The device stores the parameter set internally in the permanent parameter mem‐
ory.
✓
If a memory card is installed in the device, the device also saves the parameter
set externally on the memory card.
2. Open SOPASET.
3. In SOPASET, manually save the parameter set as a project file on the computer.
✓
The parameter set is also saved externally. The parameter set in the project file
can be transferred to a replacement device via download.
