4.7. Offline configuration

4.7 Offline configuration
Overview
Offline Configuration refers to configuring a device when the device is not physically present or
communicating with the application. This process enables you to create and save a configuration for a
device, even when the device is not there physically. Later when the device becomes available with live
communication, the same configuration can be downloaded to the device. This feature enables you to
save on device commissioning time and even helps you to replicate the configuration in multiplicity of
devices with lesser efforts. Currently, FDC does not support creating offline configuration. However, it
supports importing of offline configuration from FDM R310 or later versions. The configurations thus
imported can be downloaded to the device from FDC.
The following are the tasks that you need to perform for importing offline configuration in FDC
application software and then downloading it to the device.

Create offline configuration template in FDM

Save the configuration in FDM in FDM format.

Import the offline configuration in FDC

Download the offline configuration to the device
Note: For details on creating and using offline configuration, refer to section Offline configuration in
FDM User’s Guide.
