Figure 4.18: Configuration, Graphical Explanation.
Active Configuration
This is the configuration that the Encoder is currently using. It is loaded from one of the 16
user configuration locations (Load Active Config). It can be edited at any time and also
stored back as one of the user configurations (Store Active Config).
User Configurations
Configurations loaded into the user FLASH become user configurations. Any one of the user
configurations can be loaded as an active configuration (Load Active Config). A modified
active configuration can be copied back into one of the user FLASH locations (Store Active
Config) where it can be password write-protected. A user configuration that is write-protected
cannot be overwritten. The 16 user configurations can be saved in the backup FLASH (Store
Configs in Backup).
CAUTION…
Any user configuration that is not write-protected, will be overwritten
when Factory Default or Backup configurations are loaded to the user FLASH.
Backup Configurations
Backup FLASH stores a copy of each of the 16 user configurations when you select Store
C o n f i g s in Backup, you will be asked for the password here.
If unsure of the user configurations or they become inadvertently modified, the user
configurations can be returned to a known state at any time by the command Load C o n f i g s
from Backup. This loads the 16 backup configurations to the User FLASH, overwriting all
user configurations that are not write-protected. Individual configurations cannot be selected
for loading to the User FLASH.
The active (current) configuration is unaltered when you select Load C o n f i g s from Backup.
