Copying NodeBuilder Projects

You can copy a NodeBuilder project to another computer using IzoT CT, or by manually copying the
NodeBuilder project files. After you copy a NodeBuilder project, you must also copy any user-defined
resource files used by the device template in the project from the source computer to the target
computer, and then install and register your user-defined resource files on the target computer. See
Copying User-Defined Resource Files for more information on how to do this.

Using the IzoT Commissioning Tool to Backup and Restore a

NodeBuilder Project

You can copy a NodeBuilder project to another computer by backing up the project files on the source
computer and restoring them on the target computer with the IzoT Commissioning Tool. To do this,
follow these steps:

and the IzoT Commissioning Tool.

2. On the source computer, start the IzoT Commissioning Tool. To do this, click Start on the

taskbar, point to Programs, point to Echelon OpenLNS CT, and then select OpenLNS
