Importing a Text Template File

You can import a text template that was exported from a different one-line. Typically, you will want to do this if you have created a new default text template and you want to update your existing one-lines to the new template.

When you import a text template file into a one-line, any existing customized one-line text is removed. EasyPower will display custom one-line text that is specified in the import file, and any text that is not customized will be shown with the default one-line text.

Note: EasyPower treats all one-line text that is included in the import file as a customized, even if it currently matches the default one-line text.

Before you can import a template into a one-line, you must export a template from a different one-line. See Exporting a Text Template File for more information.

To import a text template:

  1. Click Tools > Options > One-line Text, and then click Import from File.

    2. Figure 1: One-line Text Tab

  2. You will receive a warning that importing the text template file will replace the text formats on all equipment. Click OK to continue.
