Printing/exporting the parameter list
Selection options/input fi elds
Printing and/or exporting parameters
Depending on the activation of a button in the button bar (see also page 3) or using the submenus described below, the
parameter settings can be printed out in a list, duplicates of the list can be created or the parameter data of a sensor can be
saved and copied to other identical sensors.
Submenu items
1: Print the parameter list directly
2: Save parameter data set on the PC
3: Load the saved parameter data set
from the PC to the sensor

Selection options
In the next step in each submenu, you
can select which parameter families
should be saved or printed (1.).
Additional input fi elds are available (2.)
to assign a parameter list or a data set
to a particular sensor/unit.
The serial number is a mandatory fi eld;
all other parameters are optional.
These optional fi elds show the informa-
tion of the sensor that was processed
last. Unless this information is changed
or deleted, it will also be printed out
and saved.
After the language and the printer are
selected in the option fi eld (3.), the
process can be completed by clicking
the “OK” button.

Export function of the parameter list
After the print menu is opened and the corresponding data are entered, a paper printout can be created.
To make sure you always have a copy of the parameter settings available in the form of a list (e.g. for quality assurance), it is
recommended that you save the parameter list in .xml format in addition to printing it out.
Export/import of the parameter list
The import and export function can be used to load parameter settings onto another, identical device. This function can be
used to store parameter data sets externally on the PC and to load them again when needed.
Information
The exported xml fi le can be saved locally on the PC or on a server and can be distributed/sent by e-mail or USB stick.
This does not require special database or programming knowledge. The data is saved in the Microsoft Windows direc-
tory structure. The default fi le name depends on the entries in the serial number and TAG number fi elds. However, it can
be changed or expanded manually if required. This import function can be used to load the xml fi le and upload it onto a
sensor.
