DEPTH="3" @@@-->Uploading the Settings Files to the Voltage Regulator
A voltage regulator settings file downloaded from a voltage regulator or created within the PC software can be uploaded to multiple voltage regulator units. Only a voltage regulator settings file with a ".dv2" extension can be uploaded to a voltage regulator unit. Before uploading a file, communication must be initiated with the voltage regulator that is to receive the settings. See Systems Operation, "Remote Communication".The upload process is started by clicking the open icon or clicking "File" on the menu bar and then clicking "Open". An "Open" dialog box is then displayed where the desired settings file is navigated to and selected. Clicking "Open" uploads the settings file. The default settings for the CDVR are stored in a file called "Defaults.DV2" in the "CDVR PC Software" folder on the PC.The defaults are displayed here for reference.
