Bulk Configuration
The Bulk Configuration feature lets you save generic settings of a
configured EMX device to your computer. You can use this configuration
file to copy common settings to other EMX devices of the same model
and firmware version.
Note that NO device-specific data is saved to the bulk configuration file,
such as environmental sensors or certain network settings. For a list of
device-specific settings that are
not saved, see Device-Specific Settings
NOT Included
(on page 273).
Because the date and time settings are saved in the configuration file,
users should exercise caution when distributing the configuration file to
the EMX devices in a different time zone than the source device.
Tip: To back up or restore "all" settings of a particular EMX device, use
the Backup/Restore feature instead. See
Backup and Restore of Device
Settings
(on page 274).
To save a bulk configuration file:
You must have the Administrator Privileges or "Unrestricted View
Privileges" to download the configuration.


The file is saved in the XML format, and its content is encrypted
using the AES-128 encryption algorithm.
