Configuration Files
NOTE:
It is recommended that users periodically export their config-
uration file so that it can be loaded back into the radio if their
old one requires replacement.
Dump/Load
Configuration File
The transceiver provides a Dump/Load Configuration File utility to ease
programming of operating parameters. This is especially useful if you
have a large number of radios to configure, and want to ensure that each
radio is uniformly configured.
•
Dump Current Config
—Click this button to generate and save the
current configuration file being used by the transceiver. You will
be prompted for a location to save the file.
•
Load Config File
—Click this button to select a configuration file for
loading into the transceiver. You will receive a browse window to
help you locate the file on your computer and upload it to the
transceiver.
TFTP Configuration
File
The
TFTP Configuration File
screen contains settable parameters for TFTP
file transfers and also selections for Importing/Exporting configuration
Files via TFTP.
•
Host IP Address
—Enter a valid IP address here for the host com-
puter (where the configuration file resides or where you want to
send it).
•
Filename
—Enter the exact name of the configuration text file that
will be used by the radio to import or export configuration data.
•
Timeout (sec)
—Determines the amount of time in seconds that the
radio should wait for a TFTP server to respond. The default set-
ting is
10
seconds, and will not require any change in most cases.
