OPTI-APPS Configuration Files

OPTI-APPS can save and load configuration files (.oac files), allowing different network 

configurations for different purposes. For example, OPTI-APPS can save...

• ...different states or regions to separate files.
• ...two copies of the same network: one configured for remote IP access (saved to desktop 

PC), and one for local serial port access (saved to laptop).

• ...an ‘overview’ configuration, including only the GNEs.

More than one configuration can be loaded at a time, and run simultaneously.
When a configuration is loaded, the configuration name replaces the OPTI-APPS logo at the 

root level of the Nav Pane, and appears in the application window header (see 

Figure 27

).
