SAVE
Click on this button to save the currently addressed module. If no file name is
entered in the “File” area, the file name will automatically be based on the current
ring, node and module address. For the above example it will be “00100103.C90”.
If the “CFG” radio button is selected it will be “10103.CFG” (to match Bailey
CADEWS naming syntax). This convention makes it easy to identify what Bailey
module the file corresponds with. Configuration data can be saved in one of two file
formats. The format is selected with the “C90” and “CFG” radio buttons. When the
“C90” radio button is selected, the function block configuration data is saved into
files that have a “C90” extension. This is the OPC90 file format. The “C90” files are
stored in the “ABB” subdirectory unless an alternative directory path is included as
part of a user inputted file name. When the “CFG” radio button is selected, the
function block data is saved into files that have a “CFG” extension. These files must
