13.5.2 Save Points
Main menu selection number 2 allows the current gateway configuration to be
saved to one of the three available file locations in the gateway’s file system. It
is important to reiterate that whenever any configuration changes are
performed, they are performed only on the gateway’s working memory, and
that those changes will be lost unless they are saved to the gateway’s file
system prior to exiting the console. The saved file also becomes the new
active file, which means that it will automatically be loaded from the file system
into the gateway’s working memory every time the gateway boots up. The
gateway provides space for three independent files to be stored.
Refer to Figure 22 for an example of saving the current configuration to file
system location #1 with the name “Assy_Line_6”. “Assy_Line_6” will then also
become the active file, and will be the configuration loaded into the gateway’s
working memory at the beginning of the next boot cycle.

13.5.3 Load Points
Main menu selection number 3 allows the retrieval of a configuration file from
the gateway’s file system into its working memory. The configuration can then
be modified while in the working memory and saved back to the file system if
desired. Loading a file also causes it to become the active file, which means
that it will automatically be loaded from the file system into the gateway’s
working memory every time the gateway subsequently boots up.
