Configuration Files
The configuration files are updated when changes are made via the web interface. They can
also be edited manually and downloaded to the gateway via FTP. Manual changes to the
configuration files will take effect after the gateway has been rebooted.
Some parameters can only be changed by editing the configuration files manually.
When editing the configuration files you must use an UTF-8 capable text editor. There is no
byte order mark (BOM) in the configuration files, which means that the text editor may need to
be manually set to use UTF-8 encoding.
Editing the configuration files may restrict functionality of the device and should
always be done with care.

File system
System Configuration File
The file
/app/chip.ini
is the main system configuration file containing general system
parameters. Parameters that are not explicitly configured in this file will be set to their default
values.
The parameters are described in
System Configuration File (chip.ini), p. 40
. Parameters that
are not listed in this table should
not
be changed.
Meter Configuration File
Meter configuration is stored in the file
/app/Device_Handle.cfg
. If this file does not already
exist it will be generated when the meter list is populated.
Only the entries which differ from the default values will be stored (except
version
).
The parameters are described in
Meter Configuration File, p. 43
.
