Config Program Environment File config.env

Various environment variables are stored in the config.env file. This file is set up once per installation and does not move with the specific controllers configuration. The format of the config.env file looks similar to the .cfg and .scr files but always contains a specific set of parameters. These parameters define which com port is used, the speed, and other useful or necessary installation specific information.

For example, up to 20 “quick macros” are stored in the config.env file. These are essentially like a one line “script” where you can put up to 20 of your most commonly used commands.

The most important thing about the config.env file is to make sure the com port is set properly. If it is not, when the program starts up you will get a warning saying that it can not find the serial port. This is the most commonly made mistake in setting up your environment. Most computers will use com port 1 but you system wmay be different If you are using a USB to serial adapter you will certainly have to check the hardware configuration in Windows first then edit the config.env file to make sure they match.

The typical config.env file looks like this…
