This is useful for: Configure a replacement device at the same metering location. Deploy identical configurations to multiple devices. Restore a device (accidentally reprogrammed). Backup files Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 9 Internal Device Configuration Files (.DCF) ION9000_v2.2.0 ION9000_v2.2.0 Use ION Setup to backup an ION device into a 9000_ device configuration file (*.dcf). Everything is v2.2.0.0.0.dcf copied, except: Communications modules ION9000_v2.1.0 Security Option modules Security User modules Log Mail modules.DCF files only compatible with devices of the same type and at least the same firmware PM8000 (any) version Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 10 Internal Meter Configuration Report Contains device configuration settings and may be saved as text files. Useful for documenting how the device was configured during initial deployment. May be saved for both ION and Modbus PowerLogic devices.

It is not included in the software install. CM 2022 can read the configuration information is stored in the software in various places. It reads databases, windows registry, file system, and configuration files. Inspect and Save the configuration information to an archive file. You can transfer the archived configuration information to other systems.

Windows user account must have administrative rights. 3. It must exist as a Login in SQL Server with sysadmin role in the database instance. Confidential Property of Schneider Electric | Page 16 Internal Warnings! 1. You cannot restore data or configuration from a newer version of SQL to an older version. 2. Always run Configuration Manager by choosing Run as Administrator. 3. The CM tool is designed to write to a newly-installed PME system. Writing a configuration to a system that was previously customized could negatively impact the system configuration. 4. The Configuration Manager does not transfer PME licenses, nor does it provide warnings about licensing issues. 5. The Configuration Manager cannot determine if the provided key is correct for the source system configuration. 6. An archive cannot be saved to a network drive. You must use locally attached drive. 7. After a configuration is successfully written to a system, the system is not in an operational state; you must manually complete the configuration. 8. The log is not saved with the archive; it is retained while the tool is running only. Restarting the tool erases the log.
