function is used to copy (or clone) all the settings from one
meter to other meters requiring exactly the same setup and
programming (

etc.).
Warning!

meter-to-meter interfacing. The DPA1200 is a special
eight-conductor flat cable with two wires swapped.
Using standard CAT5 or other cable will cause
damage to both meters.
Copy Function Requirements
To successfully copy settings from one meter to another, both meters
must have the same software version and baud rate settings. See
