4.4 Saving / loading a configuration
With the Open… command in the File menu, you can load a configuration stored on a data
carrier into the ASIMON program. In ASIMON it is only possible to work with one configuration,
not several in different windows.
If you are working with an unsaved configuration and would like to use the Open… command
to open a different configuration from a data carrier, you are first asked if you would like to save
the current configuration. If you do not save here, these data are lost.

To save a configuration, select either the Save or Save as… command from the File menu.
Configurations are saved in the accustomed Windows® manner.
Note
ASIMON configuration files have the extension *.ASI (version 1 AS-Interface safety moni-
tors), *.AS2 (version 2 AS-Interface safety monitors) or *.AS3 (version 3 AS-Interface safety
monitors).
Saving a configuration on a data carrier does not ensure a useful, correct and functioning con-
figuration. For further information, refer to chapter "Commissioning the AS-Interface safety
monitor"5.
