System Programming
Copy Menu
Copy MenuThe Copy menu allows programmed parameters to be copied and
transferred. Data from the SD card can be transferred to a controller or
from a controller to the SD card or copy parameters from one device to
the next. The Copy option offers three screens: Configuration,
Parameters and System Log.
ConfigurationIf the controller is equipped with an SD card, the configuration function
allows data to be transferred either from the 301C to the SD card or the
reverse. This makes it possible to transfer the controller’s programming
to a computer or from a computer to the controller.
The first option in the configuration screen is 301C to SDcard.
Selecting this option copies the controller’s configuration and
parameters into a “config.ini” file 1.
The second option is SDcard to 301C allows the configuration and
parameters of the “config.ini” file on an SDcard to be copied to the
controller.
Note: The “config.ini” file contents can be modified at any time and from
any computer.
1. When transferring data, the system will automatically search for an existing “config.ini”
file before proceeding. If one exists, the system searches for a “config.bak” file. If
found, the file is deleted. Then, the pre-existing “config.ini” file is renamed “config.bak”,
making it possible to save the new “config.ini” file and keep a backup copy of the previ-
ous one.
After inserting an SD card into the controller, the controller’s system looks for an exist-
ing “config.ini” file that contains an “autoload” tag equal to 1 (yes). If the tag is found,
the system loads the contents of the file and resets “autoload” to 0 (no). This is a useful
feature for editing the file on a computer without having any impact on the controller
(such as recorded Events).
