Saving and Restoring SVI Data
ValVue allows you to upload configuration, calibration and diagnostic data from the SVI device memory
to a computer and save it as a .dmp file. Downloading this .dmp file to a SVI will overwrite existing data.
To save the data from a device, select Save SVI Memory from Record menu. A window will pop up to
enter the name of a .dmp file. This uploading process takes about 20 seconds after clicking the Save
button.
To download data from a .dmp file to a SVI device, select Restore SVI Memory from Record menu. A
window will pop up to select a .dmp file to download to the SVI. This downloading process takes about
20 seconds after clicking the Open button. The SVI must be restarted after a restore of the SVI memo-
ry. Position sensor calibration (Find Stop) is usually required if a .dmp file is created from another SVI.
