3.3Setup Procedure for the GT30

The GT30 should be set up using the procedure outlined below.

(1) Setting the “Configuration File” with GTWIN

The GT30 has an internal file called the “Configuration file”, which is used to determine various operating environment parameters. When the GT30 is shipped from the factory, the settings listed below are set for the parameters in the configuration settings file. If changes are made to these settings, they are made from GTWIN screen creation tool. (For detailed information on changing settings, see page 109 and subsequent pages.) If the GT30 is being used without changing the factory settings, the following setup procedure is not necessary.
