Setting Up the Meter
PAS allows you to prepare setup data for the meter off-line
without the need to have it connected to your PC.
Select the device site from the list box on the PAS toolbar, and
then select the desired setup group from the Meter Setup
menu. Click on the tab with the setup you want to create or
modify, and then fill in the boxes with the desired configuration
data for your device. Click the “Save as…” button to store your
new data to the site database.
Ì
Always set up and store the Basic Setup data to the site
database first. PAS uses this data as a reference when arranging
other meter setups.
To save your setup to another site database, select it from the
file pane. Click OK.
To reuse setups from another site, copy them to your present
site database. Click Open, select the desired site database,
and click OK. The opened setup is copied to your site
database.
You can also copy all setups from one site database into
another site's database. Select a device site from the list box
on the toolbar from which you want to reproduce setups, and
then select “Copy to...” from the Meter Setup menu. Select the
site database to which to copy setups, and click OK.
