C.9.2  Saving new site data to the XGF868i

To save new site data to the meter:
1.  Select the radio button for 

new

 and click on the  

[save site to meter] button.

2.  A window similar to 

Figure 53

 below opens. Enter the 

desired name, and click [ok].

Figure 53: Site name Entry window

3. The 

site file selection

 window (

Figure 52 on page 76

opens. Highlight a site file with the desired settings, and 

click [open]. The site file becomes the 

working

 site in the 

meter with the desired settings.

C.9.3  Saving a site to the PC

To save a site to the PC:
1.  Highlight the desired site in the left pane. (See 

Figure 51 

on page 76

.)

2.  Click [save site to PC]. A window similar to 

Figure 52 on 

page 76

 opens.

3.  Enter the desired site name and click [save]. PanaView 

saves the site in the PanaView folder unless otherwise 

specified.

NOTE: 

If you have created a site on the meter after opening 

the 

site file operations

 window, you must close and reopen 

the window to click on the new site.

C.9.4  Clearing a site from the meter

As the XGF868i has only one site loaded (

working

) at any 

time, it is not possible to remove this site. To change site 

parameters, first 

save a site to the PC

 (as discussed in 

Saving a site to the PC on the previous page), and then  

save the site to the XGF868i (as discussed in 

Saving new 

site data to the XGF868i on page 77

).

C.9.5  Saving site data in text form

To store the data from a site file as a text file for display  

or printout:
1.  Highlight the site in the left pane. (see 

Figure 52 on 

page 76

.)

2.  Click on [save site print to PC].
3. The 

site file selection

 window (shown in 

Figure 52 on 

page 76

) opens. Enter the desired site name (now with 

a.prt suffix) and click on [save]. PanaView displays a text 

version of the site, as shown in 

Figure 54 on page 77

.

4.  Click [close] once to close the 

site file operations

 window, 

and a second time to close the 

properties

 window and 

return to the 

meter browser
