Setting the system back to defaults

The system can be set back to the original defaults by selecting “File/Set
Config to Default” from the dropdown menu. This should be used with
caution.

Saving the configuration

The configuration file is automatically saved when you exit the program, but
in the case the power is removed from the computer the configuration file
will not be saved. For this reason it is a good idea to save the configuration
from time to time when you are configuring large systems. This is not
necessary to do on smaller networks. If you are done configuring A3 then
you should always save the configuration as well. To save the
configuration select “File/Save Config” and the file will be saved.

The file can also be saved for back-up purposes by selecting “File/Save
Config as…” and choosing a location.

Opening a previously saved configuration file

The system can be quickly configured by opening a previously saved
configuration. This can be done by selecting “File/Open and Load Config
File” from the dropdown menu and then selecting a file to open.

The location of the configuration file

The A3 configuration file is always named “a3_system_config.cfg” and is
located in the installation path. By default the file will be found in
“c:\program files\a3 system management software\a3_system_config.cfg”
and is approximately 256 kb in size (depending on your configuration), but
can be much larger.
