Finish editing Press the
Exit
key to return to the main menu.
The control asks if the changed data are to be saved or discarded (see Saving
input values).
4.2.2 Managing Configuration Files
The configuration data is saved in several files with the extension .cfg. This
enables you to establish the correct configuration for different types of
machines by selecting the appropriate files from the paths entered.
There are two types of configuration file lists: HEIDENHAIN files and OEM
files.
The HEIDENHAIN files are permanently defined and cannot be changed (e.g.
CfgJhConfigDataFiles ).
The paths and names of OEM files can be changed. New configuration files
can also be added (for a new axis, for example). The paths are saved in the file
configfiles.cfg.
The paths and names of the configuration files are stored in the dataFiles list
(see "Allocation of Configuration Data" on page 81). The control searches for
the parameter objects and their parameters in these *.cfg files.
The paths of these files can be changed. Use the RIGHT ARROW key to open
a dialog box for entering the new path or file name.
4.2.3 Sort File Content
Pressing the SORT CONTENT key sorts the contents of the *.cfg configuration
files so that the objects are in the same order as they are listed in the config-
uration editor.
However, since the data in the configuration editor comes from multiple files,
there is no direct correlation between the display in the configuration editor
and the contents of each file.
This sorting makes it easier to compare the contents of similar files (such as
*.cfg for axes), since the entries are now in the same order.
