3.3. Creating Template Information
The purpose of the Template file (*.tut file) is to avoid reentering
Company Information and/or Custom Cable Definitions for each job by
saving the information in a Template that can be used on multiple jobs.
You can also use an existing Job to create a Template.
Test-Um recommends creating one or more reusable Template files (*.tut
files) when you perform the initial setup on your Validator-NT. Each time
you create a New Job select the template that you created and make
changes to the information as necessary.
The most efficient way to create templates is by using the Plan-Um
software. See the section of the Plan-Um instruction booklet titled
Managing Job Files/Save and Export As Template for complete
instructions. Template files can be created and stored in Plan-Um
and uploaded to the Validator-NT as needed, or created directly in the
Validator-NT.
1. To enter Template Information using the Validator-NT keypad,
select Auto Test on the Start screen. Enter the Contractor and/or
Custom Cable Information that you wish to save as a template.
Press Quit to return to the Auto Test screen.
2. Select Job Utilities and navigate to the Export Tut button.
3. Use the alphanumeric keypad
to name the Template. Use the
Backspace (F1) and Delete
(F2) soft keys to edit the name
as required. Press Accept to
complete the name. Press
OK (F3) soft key to save the
template information under the
name entered.
4. The Template Information that you created contains contractor
and/or custom cable information associated with the current job.
You can use this template as it is or edit the information when
loaded into other jobs. You can also use an existing Job to create
a Template.
