About Corrupted Station Configuration Files

Corrupted configuration files cannot be used in the Station Manager or Station Builder applications.

When a corrupt .cfg file is detected, the following dialog is displayed, and a warning message is logged.

How to proceed

Click Yes to attempt to recover the corrupted file. A utility will scan the file and fix or recover whatever it can.

A .txt file will open and display details about what was recovered.

A new, usable .cfg file is created and opened. This file has the same filename as the orignal corrupted
file.

The corrupted file is renamed with a tag “corrupt.” You may delete this file.

If you do not want to attempt to fix the file, click No. You can try to open a different file, or create a new one.
If a backup file exists, you can replace the corrupted file with the backup version.

How to Print a Station Configuration File

Click the Print icon on the Station Builder Print Preview window toolbar or click the Print icon on the Station
Builder toolbar, to print the current station configuration.

file.
