Chapter 4 - Configuring Impulse with Application Developer

4-4

Launch Now

This method of beginning Application Developer is typically used by more experienced users of IDC 
products. Select your Impulse version and press OK. You can now go directly to the Main Menu or 
tool bar buttons to configure the Impulse (see 

Fine-Tuning Your Application

).

Open an Existing Project

If you want to open a project file which has been stored on disk (not in the Impulse), select 

Open an 

Existing Project

. Select the desired file and click on the 

Open

 button. After opening an existing 

project file, it is still possible to use the Project Wizard at any time by simply clicking on the Wizard 
toolbar button. See 

Fine-Tuning Your Application 

if you do not wish to use the Project Wizard.
