Saving Equipment Defaults

If you have settings on your equipment that you want to use on other equipment items of the same type, you can save them as default settings. To save the equipment defaults:

  1. Open the item from which you want to save equipment defaults.
  2. Make any changes to the item that you want saved as default settings.
  3. Click  Save Equipment Defaults.
  4. You are asked if you want to overwrite the existing default equipment data. To overwrite the existing equipment default data with new data from the equipment dialog box, click Yes.

The phase family is determined by the Phase Type you select on the equipment at the time the default is saved. For example, if you are in the Motor Data dialog box and you have chosen phase type CN, then this affects the defaults for a single-phase line-to-neutral motor.

Note: You can control the location where the equipment default database file is stored using File Locations. See File Locations Tab for more information.
