4.3.1 Saving a Configuration to File
Selecting the Save to File … button displays the Save As dialog box.
• Files are saved in a ‘FastTrace User Settings (*.fus)’ file format.
• Characters such as ':', '*' and '?' in the filename are invalid and will not be accepted.
• If the file already exists, the user shall be asked whether or not they wish to overwrite the
existing file.
If an error in saving occurs, such as insufficient storage space, the user will be informed of the
error by a dialog box.
4.3.2 Loading a Configuration from File
Selecting the Load from File … button displays the Load Settings dialog box.
• The ‘Files of type’ drop down list is displayed as default ‘FastTrace User Settings (*.fus)’.
• Select Open to open the file.
• The user is prompted whether or not to use the Ethernet IP settings from the file to be
loaded or to retain the current ones. The following dialog is displayed:
Figure 57: TCP IP Settings
Note: Users are warned to take note of the IP address in the FastTrace unit before saving
settings to ensure the unit can be contacted once setup is complete and the site is
disconnected.
If the selected settings file is incompatible, then the following dialog is displayed:
Figure 58: Incompatible User Settings File
The reasons for receiving the above dialog can include:
• Attempting to use a settings file that is newer than the unit’s current software version allows.
• Attempting to load settings files using a version of the setup GUI that is newer than the
unit’s current version of setup GUI.
To rectify this, the user must either use an older setup file, or upgrade the FastTrace.
If the saved settings file is corrupted or unsupported, the Save to FastTrace button is disabled to
prevent that file being used by the FastTrace. If a valid settings file is selected the Save to
FastTrace button is re-enabled.
