9.4. Reading and writing setup .ini files
The [Setup] menu selection, found by pressing the ENTER button in the Cut-List
Mode , is the pathway to all of the configuration details of the Courier can be
password protected. All of the sub-menus below the [Setup] menu contain options
which can be written to disk, and also read from the disk. This includes the Record
Styles settings.
This means that you can configure the Courier for your particular requirement, with
your initials, Record Styles, metering display, etc, and then save all the settings to
disk. At any point, you can reload the settings from the disk, or insert the disk into
another Courier and reload your settings into it.
This facility is also useful if you have a number of Courier machines and you wish
to configure them so that they all have the same settings, for example, to ensure that
the Record Styles used are all the same.
The two menu selections used to write and read setup configuration files are called
[Read Setup] and [Write Setup], found under the [Setup], [System] menu.
When you write a setup file to disk, Courier writes a standard Windows .ini file to a
directory on the disk called /SETUPS. You can name the file however you wish, so
you can have multiple .ini files with different configurations. The .ini file can be
opened with any standard text editor and has a format which is given in Appendix 2
- there is also a standard Windows application supplied with your Courier which
can write the setup files and transfer them via a PC’s serial port, to the Courier. See
Appendix 2 for more information on the Courier Configuration Manager software.
9.4.1. Writing a setup file to disk
In the Cut-List Mode , press the MENU button and select [Setup], [System] and
[Write Setup]. The following screen is displayed :
Use the UP and DOWN arrows, or the SCRUB-WHEEL, to change the character
and the ENTER key to accept it. You can use any character in the range : A - Z, 0 -
9, _ and @. Entering spaces (and any other illegal characters) is not allowed, so as
soon as a space is entered, the filename is complete.
