7.4.4 Completing the configuration
►
Permanently save the entire configuration once it has been successfully tested:
°
Parameter set in the device: Click the button .
°
Configuration file on the computer: Click the buttons Device > Export SDV file.
7.5 Information on initial commissioning
The SOPAS ET configuration software on the computer is used to adapt the device to
the particular application on site. The default factory settings of the device are the
starting point for this. The default settings can also be accessed again after parameter‐
ization has been completed.
The parameter values (configuration data) in the working memory of the device can
be modified to optimize the functionality of the device. This is done by creating an
application-specific, further modifiable parameter set using SOPAS ET. The parameter
set with the current configuration data is then loaded into the permanent parameter
memory of the device.
NOTE
Recommendation: As part of a data backup plan, also save the current parameter set
outside the device memory. This makes it easier, if necessary (device failure, etc.), to
restore, to a replacement device of the same type, the current parameter set used to
date.
