from a csv file. To see the csv file format, refer to Appendix J. Or, simply export the default
legends configured into the DMS-3K and you will see the required format in your csv file. Also,
the instructions are included in the csv export file for reference.
Note: The legend format matches the ISM SER format for legends. When transferring the
legends from an ISM system, export the legends from the ISM and then import that file into the
