If a new signal flow chart is to be generated, previously saved configurations can also be used. By

saving the old configuration under a new name and specifically changing functional units or

parameters, a new signal flow chart can generally be produced with minimum operating effort.

Naturally, the effort required depends on how similar the new signal flow chart is to the old one.

Proceed as follows:

1. Click on the "Open Document" action button (Windows standard symbol). A dialog box for

selecting the configuration files is opened.

2. Click on the desired configuration file in the list.
3. Confirm the selection with

.

The dialog box closes and the selected configuration (signal flow chart) appears in the

working area. The file name appears in the header bar of the main

ODEZRUOGVRIW

window.

File Manager

The File Manager is an expanded dialog box for searching and opening a previously saved

measurement sequence schedule

.

Since file names in the present version have to comply with the usual DOS conventions

(maximum 8 + 3 characters) it is not always easy to find a particular measurement sequence

schedule in large directories.

The File Manager not only displays files and directories on the hard disk, but also the information

stored under Summary Info

Summary Info

when you are accessing a

ODEZRUOGVRIW

measurement sequence schedule.

In this way a particular measurement sequence schedule can be identified without the file name

being known or having to first load it into

ODEZRUOGVRIW
