Opening a Drive Configuration File

Opening a drive configuration file loads the file from the personal computer to the
CS3000 software. Once the configuration file is opened, you can download it to the
drive.

To open a configuration file:

Step 1. From the File menu, choose Open or click

.

Step 2. If you already have a configuration file open and have made edits to it that

have not been saved, you are prompted to save the changes. Make the
appropriate selection. See section 3.6 for more information about saving
configuration files.

The Open Configuration File dialog box is displayed. An example is shown in
figure 3.3.

Step 3. The Open Configuration File dialog box defaults to the work directory of the

CS3000 software, which was specified during installation. If this is not the
correct directory, select the directory where the file is stored.

Step 4. Select the name of the file you want to open. The name of the file should be

copied in the File Name box. If not, click on it again.

If the configuration file you want does not have the .CNF extension, it does
not show up automatically in the box under File Name. In this case, select *.*
in the List Files of Type box to display all of the available files in the File Name
list.

Step 5. Open the file by selecting OK. The name of the file you selected now appears

in the Opened Configuration field of the main window.

To close the dialog box without selecting a file, select Cancel.
