USB Memory Stick Folders & Files
If a USB flash drive is used to transfer files between in-
struments and/or the software, the files must be stored
in specific
DEVICE, CONFIG and PROFILE folders.
When saving files from the software to the USB stick,
always ensure they are saved to the correct folder. Lo-
cal file storage on your PC can be in any location. The
USB option also limits the file name to 8 characters
plus the 3 digit .bct or .pfl extension. Longer file names
will be truncated.
When saving a file, the data will be overwritten
If the file name already exists.
DEVICE – This folder must be located in the
Root of the USB memory stick
CONFIG – Configuration files (*.bct)
PROFILE – Profile program files (*.pfl)
RECORDER – Recorder log folders/files.
These can be created or saved from the PC
software.
Instrument Configuration
When creating a new configuration with the software,
the basic instrument type and the options fitted to it
must be defined in the Device Selection screen. You
can select these from the drop down lists or by typing
the full model number in the Order number field.
Note:
It is important that the options selected match
those fitted to your unit.
Alternatively the complete instrument type and exist-
ing configuration can be uploaded to the PC from your
instrument, via the configuration socket or serial com-
munications. A previously saved configuration file can
be opened from the file open menu or button.
Main Parameter Adjustment
The main parameter screen contains the configura-
tion settings broken down into functional groups simi-
lar to the instruments’ menus. The parameters can be
changed in the yellow Value column. Type in new val-
ues or select from the list offered. Invalid values will be
highlighted in red (possible values are show to the left).
Parameters are “greyed out” if they are inaccessible
due the hardware not being fitted or if they are disabled
by other settings.
Once the required changes are made, the configura-
tion can then be download to the instrument or saved
to hard disk or a USB stick, with a .bct file extension.
The file contains the device information and configura-
tion parameter settings, including any supervisor and
enhanced operation mode screens or changes to the
LED functions. Transfer of comms settings and clock
date/time are via optional tick boxes on the download
settings screen. Profiles, splash screens language files
and data recordings are not saved in the .bct file. They
are uploaded/saved separately.
