Only Honeywell software modules that include a Package file (PKG) and Data Definition File (DDF) can be configured with

eXpress Config. Since Data Definition Files are a requirement for this software, that means software modules released prior to

the release of eXpress Config are not configurable using eXpress Config.

When a package is “opened” – that is, eXpress Config is launched – eXpress Config displays all configuration parameters

described in the Data Definition File (and a REG file if included). The first time a package is configured, default values for all

parameters are presented. Changes to the parameters are saved back to the package. Every subsequent time the package is

configured, the last saved configuration data is presented. All parameter changes are saved to the package, but only ‘marked’

data is sent to the remote device. Parameter values modified by the user are automatically marked. The user may change the

‘marked’ status of any parameter or group of parameters. eXpress Config can also be opened from the Avalanche MC Console,

and in this case marked data values are sent to the devices and are saved to the package within the Avalanche MC Console.

Launch eXpress Config through the Avalanche MC Console by right clicking on the software module package name and select

Configure Package on the right click menu. Then select eXpress Config from the Configure Package menu.

There may be two eXpress Config entries, depending on the currently selected software package.

• eXpress Config – Config is present for all software packages and is the option covered in this section.

• Additionally, eXpress Config – Barcodes is present for some Summit radio software packages. Please see Creating

Configuration Bar Codes with eXpress Config (page 4-9) for details on this process.

Menu Bar

Alt key shortcuts are available for the Menu Bar. For example, pressing the <Alt><F> key combination will cause the ‘File’

menu bar drop-down to be displayed. When a drop-down menu is displayed, pressing the key corresponding to the under-

lined letter in any menu item causes that menu item to be invoked.

The Menu Bar contains two menu items: File and Edit.

File Menu

Edit Menu

The Edit menu bar drop-down contains three items: Cut, Copy and Paste. These three items have the standard Win-

dows functionality of cutting, copying and pasting selected text in user editable fields.

Navigation Tree

A navigation tree may have multiple root nodes. The organization of the navigation tree mirrors the navigation of the pro-

gram being configured.

Save Causes the current configuration parameters to be written to the embedded ‘ini’ file. This includes all param-

eters for the active software package, not just visible parameters. There are no additional user interface el-

ements displayed when ‘Save’ is selected. A Save confirmation dialog box is presented to the user. Buttons

on the Save dialog have the following functions:

• Yes – Causes configuration changes to be saved to the software package, and the configuration utility to

close.

• No – Causes the configuration utility to close without saving unsaved changes.

• Cancel – Causes the configuration dialog to close, but leaves the configuration utility open. User control

stays with the configuration utility. Unsaved configuration changes are not saved.

About Displays a dialog containing the version number of the configuration utility and a copyright notice. Click the

OK button or the X to close the dialog box and return to the configuration utility.

Exit The function of the Exit option is to exit the configuration function:

• If eXpress Config was accessed from the Avalanche MC Console, selecting Exit returns you to

Avalanche.

• If the Configure Package button was clicked on the Package Selection screen, selecting Exit returns you

to the Package Selection screen.
