Using Driver Configuration Files

The Comtrol Drivers Management Console supports saving device driver
configuration files, which provides:

Back-up for existing driver configuration settings

Ability to configure multiple of the same devices with the same configuration
parameters

Save the driver configuration settings because you need to remove a driver
version to install a new driver version and you want to reload the driver
configuration settings into the new driver

Note: Configuration files must be for the same model with the same port density.

For example, you cannot load a DeviceMaster PRO configuration file onto a
DeviceMaster RTS or a configuration file for a 32-port DeviceMaster RTS
onto a 4-port DeviceMaster RTS.

Configuration files are saved with a .DCF extension.

Saving Driver Configuration Files

Use the following procedure to create and save a configuration file.

1.

After configuring the device and ports, click Save Configuration.
