7.Saving and Restoring Configuration Parameters

After the RPC-4840N has been properly configured, parameters can be downloaded and saved as an ASCII text file. Later, if the configuration is accidentally altered, the file with the saved parameters can be uploaded to automatically reconfigure the unit without the need to manually assign each parameter.

Saved parameters can also be uploaded to other RPC-4840N units. This allows rapid set-up when several units will be configured with the same parameters.

The "Save Parameters" procedure can be performed from any terminal emulation program (e.g. ProComm, Crosstalk, Hyperterminal, etc.), which allows downloading of ASCII files.

7.1.Sending Parameters to a File

1.Start your communications program and access the RPC command mode using the System Level Password.

2.When the RPC> command prompt appears, type /DL and press [Enter]. The RPC will prompt you to prepare your communications program. Set up your communications program to receive an ASCII download, and specify a name for the file that will receive the saved parameters (e.g. RPC.PAR).

3.When the communications program is ready to receive the file, return to the RPC command mode, and press [Enter] to proceed.

4.The RPC-4840N will send a series of ASCII command lines which specify the currently selected parameters.
