Exporting Configurations
When you select a configuration to export, Plant Applications automatically launches Excel and creates the necessary worksheets within the Excel workbook. After the workbook has been created, you can edit the configuration information within the workbook. Then, you can import the data into Plant Applications either on the same server or on a different server.
You must have Administrator access to the Administrator security group to export configurations.
Before you begin the export, you must close all instances of Excel, unless you want the information added to the open Excel workbook.
To export objects:
-
Log in to the Plant Applications Administrator program.
-
Right-click on what you want to export and select Export <object name>. The Configuration Export dialog box appears
-
Select what you want to export and click OK.
NOTE: The options in the Export Configuration dialog box will vary, depending on the configuration you are exporting.
-
Excel will start and your workbook will be created.
-
To export additional configurations, repeat steps 2 and 3.
