Keeping What You’ve Got Safe—
Using “Get Setup”
Every TDY is shipped from the factory with a
Configuration File already installed in its memory.
This file is comprised of either the factory default set
of operating parameters, or of the set of parameters
specified by the customer at the time of order.
CAUTION:
Any time a connected TDY is “programmed”
by downloading a Configuration File into memory,
ALL
of the configuration parameters
resident in the transmitter memory
at the time of the download are
OVERWRITTEN
with whatever parameters are showing
on the Configuration Program Screen. All previous
parameters are then unrecoverable.
This includes things like, input type, tag name,
calibration date, input and/or output trim values, etc.
IMPORTANT:
To safeguard against the accidental loss of a
Configuration File, always use the “Get Setup” button
and the File Management facilities under the “File”
button, located at the bottom-center of the
Configuration Program Main Screen.
To save the Configuration File already resident in the
transmitter’s memory:
1. Start the PC Configuration Program, making
sure that the TDY is connected as shown in
Figure 2.
2. Click on the “Get Setup” button at the bottom-
center of the Configuration Program Main
Screen (see Figure 3).
The screen will flicker once, and the settings
shown on the left area of the screen will match
those showing on the right.
3. Click on the “File” button. This brings up an
Explorer-like set of windows on the left area of
the screen.
4. Enter a name for the current Configuration File
(the one already in the transmitter’s memory),
and click on the “Save” button.
Note:
File names must follow the DOS convention; Eight-
character maximum, all lower case, no suffix.
The Configuration Program adds
a suffix to the file name automatically.
5. Answer “Yes” to save the named file to disk.
The left side of the screen will now show the
name of the file entered in Step 4. The
“starting point” of the TDY Configuration
Process is now saved on the PC disk. If you
decide to abort the configuration, this file can
always be downloaded back to the transmitter.
6. Click on “QuitFile” to return to the Main
Configuration Screen.
