CHAPTER 2: GALILEO 616 FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
GALILEO 616 PROJECTS
A Galileo 616 project is the organizational structure in which one or more snapshots — full
configurations for all parameters and system settings — are kept. The Galileo 616 holds only
one project file at a time and allows the user to scroll through and load any snapshots con-
tained in the project.
The Compass control software, running on a computer, does not have its own memory for
system settings and parameters, and just reads what it is connected to. So when Compass is
connected to a Galileo 616, it reads and displays the project file and the current active snap-
shot that is contained in the unit’s memory. However, loading another project file (stored on
the computer) into the Compass control software when it is connected to a Galileo 616
replaces whatever project file is currently in the Galileo 616.
CAUTION: Opening a project file in the Compass control software when the
computer is connected to a Galileo 616 will overwrite the project, and its snap-
shots, residing in the Galileo 616 (if the Overwrite option is selected when opening the
project). To merge snapshots from another project file into the current project in a
Galileo 616, use the Merge Project option on the Open Project dialog box (click More
for this option to appear).
TIP: You can use the Compass control software to read and save the
Galileo 616’s project file (and the snapshots it contains) as a backup procedure.
This file can be saved in the computer (or to a network server, CD, or other storage
medium) and later reloaded via Compass to the Galileo.
