Copy a configuration
You do not need to edit or copy the built-in configuration Analytics that is used in connection with the
source provider TCP XML XProtect Transact provider. Simply use the built-in configuration
Analytics as is.
You can copy configurations of the same source type (serial port, TCP client, TCP XML or Troy box)
for easy reuse of existing configurations.
To copy a configuration, do the following:
1. Open the XProtect Transact Administrator window.
2. On the XProtect Transact Administrator window's Sources tab, click the Add New... button
if you want to add a new source or the Edit... button to edit an existing source. Define or, if
required, edit the settings of the relevant source.
3. In the Create/Edit Source window's Configuration section, select the required configuration
and click the Copy... button.
Configurations are saved together with the type of source (serial port, TCP client, TCP XML or
Troy box) for which it has been created. So if you have selected a serial port source, you can
only select configurations defined for serial port sources. However, exported filters can be
used with configurations created for any type of source.
4. Type a name for the configuration in the Name field and change the required settings.
5. Click OK to save your new configuration.
